About Me

I live on my boat somewhere in the Caribbean and I don't know if or when I will ever go back to the States. So I hope that you are enjoying whatever badass job you have in a stuffy office in a crowded city waiting to get that next BMW or VP title. Have fun with that. I am going diving, then I am going to watch the sunset in my hammock on the stern of the boat with my book, then go to the bar for some live music.

My Interests

At some point in my life something happened to get me hooked on a certain type of sporting. I got into kitesurfing, surfing, wakeboarding, sailing, mountain biking, skateboarding (long board cruising), paragliding, and road biking. I never did have a thing for the regular sports - football, baseball, etc... I actually can't stand to watch them on TV. If people want to waste there weekend watching other people have a good time, more power to them. I am getting out and doing something. When I am done, it is bar time. I like to go out. I like new bars, old bars, dive bars, pretentious bars...whatever, I like 'em all. It is nice to go out with old friends or meet new ones. Bring on the tequila.

I'd like to meet:

"Time Apart"

We lived together for a year, over a year.  There were good times and bad, but all in all everything was perfect.  Last July when I moved in, there was quite a break in period during which w...

Booking Nightmare

Once a year there comes a time for the people of the islands to cut loose for a weekend and enjoy a nice relaxing time on tiny Water Cay in Utila for an all night rave.  Too much work and no...

Typical Island Life

Last Thursday I took a Norwegian couple my age on a three day sail.  We spent the first night in Cayos Cachinos, a group of islands a few hours away from Roatan, the sail over was awesome and we ...

Back to the Grind

When I walked up to my first interview at the Tourist Information booth in West Bay, Mario's first words were, "Tell me a story."  If there is one thing I cando, it is tell a good sailing tale.&n...

Good to be Home in Roatan

After such success with the smuggling of cars into Mexico, I decided to press my luck in the "delivery" business.  Things in Rio Dulce were not working.  The backpacker season was a few week...

First Day on the Job

  It has been 20 months since I left my old life behind in LA and started my early retirement. As nice as it sounds, I do sometimes get bored doing absolutely nothing all day. A few weeks ago I ...

I Should Have Know Better

After 4 days of sailing into a monster current, making no headway and getting slammed by constant thunderstorms, we finally had a major issue.  The day started out nice.  We spotted a whale ...

Oops...I did it again.

I woke  up this morning, not terribly hung over, but still just enough to remind me that I had a few drinks last night.  As  I got out of bed, the bright yellow stains on my shirt crump...

Never Wearing Clothes Again

There are certain points in life when you try something new and realize you can never go back to your old ways.  In the last year and I half I have had many of these instances, the biggest being ...

Roadtrip!!!

When I left for Texas last month, I never imagined the adventure that lay before me in getting back here.  Of course, I waited until the day of my flight back to Isla to change it so I could stay...
