In Puerto Rico I had 3 video options. My 3CCD for high quality stuff, my handycam with dive case for on the water, and of course my now dead Optio for little on water video notes or “Vblogs” as they say these days. This is one of those Optio clips. So on this particular day we started out clean but soon enough the wind and waves began to build. We took a nice break after this clip where I ended up taking a nice beating trying to get off the beach to continue the day. Of course that was followed by the most memorable landing of the trip near Isabella. “Camuy” that I mention in the clip is actually inland quite a ways from where we actually were, but was the easiest identifier on the chart I was using at the time. Actually we were somewhere more west of Quebradillas.

One thing that stood out to me real fast on this trip, you can be working all day on the water, be as tired as a dog, and you still have that big landing waiting for you. You can choose your beach and see the trees and think, “another day done”. but the truth is, “It ain’t over till it’s over!”.

I was still pronouncing Taino’s name wrong LOL, it’s pronouced “tIEEno” not “tAono” as I say here. Sorry dude! Anyway here’s just a moment in time during the CTA trip in Puero Rico, on the Atlantic side.
