I no longer seek out heavy pits like that. Beyond my abilities. I like fun long rippable points.

S. Billy Wilmot/Jamnesia Surf Camp is super close to the Kingston airport - as is one of the island's best waves. Super easy strike from the northeast.
I always thought that would be a fun easy surf trip.

You'd get the real experience.

I feel like the Jamaicans would get me. :poop:

Check out The Firefly in Bocas. Ryan’s a good dude from Jersey and won’t steer you wrong.
Anyone know a cool/reliable guide in panama for a last minute super efficient strike this weekend? forecast looks insane, flights on miles are free, and I still have weeks yet before my ear surgery. Never been to panama just want to head straight to the best surf in modest comfort :cool:

Yes if we find a place with strong rental record (6+ months a year including high price high seasons) that would mostly or totally pay for itself (even kick off a few bucks) and big enough and nice enough that my wife and i could one day in the future (12-15 years) live there 6-8 months per year, basically make it our home when I’m in my mid 50s. By then two homes nearly paid off, both with great rental and/or overall value. I think in 13 years the NY home will appreciate far more than even a dope ass 3 bedroom condo on the beach in central Florida. Diversifies my overall portfolio anyway, using nearly free money to do so as I build equity these next 12-15 years of peak earning

And I’m counting on and relatively set up to weather an inevitable recession or two in that window. I’ve got a long horizon

Besides I can always go back to porn in a pinch to cover the nut on the second home

ba-doom-pahhh

My wife will have a thriving yoga career and who knows, I could hang my shingle as a consultant to my industry reomtely with my decades of happy clients and employers given my humble brag expertise in the biz and spend 10 hours a week and the occasional work trip for supplemental income. Live on the beach near several breaks (Florida mind you) and spend weeks or even months around the globe. A cottage on the sea in Portugal for a month. Africa with Doctors Without Borders. Indo and J bay. kauai. Save up and splurge on Tavi type trips while I’m still comfy in heavy waves in my 50’s and beyond. Rent the Long Beach house every summer to pay for all our trips. Ireland and Scandinavia, some classic euro,trips.

and there I am leaverite posting. Clearly bedtime

Word. If we had kids we would still be just dandy but yeah, subtract 2.2 million per kid over the 22+ years to raise each one, there would be no talk of early retirement

I'm not sure how much you've surfed the area, but I'll put Central Florida's 6:15 Nautical Twilight/6:25 howling side-onshore up against Central California any day of the week.

If there's a tornado warning it's probably side-off or legit SW with rights up the beach. For an entire hour after frontal passage. Enjoy the most prevalent lightning strike rate in the US.
