Speargun Pictures

Finally, I have them! I really need to get my own digital camera. Too bad I'm poor. The lighting in these pictures really does not do the wood justice (not to mention the camera is a little iffy). I tried to fire up the old digital, but it is dead.
All I did too the wood was sand it (a lot), then put about seven coats of teak oil on it. I don't think it could have turned out better. My only lament is that it took so long to make and now the spearfishing season is almost over. The fish never leave, but the water gets cold. So maybe I'll have to brave the weather this winter to try this baby out >: )

TEAK: Isla Espiritu Santo

Well, I haven't posted in awhile because I haven't been in the water in awhile! I've had an ear infection for the past... week and a half I think, and that has kept me high and dry. But, even though the doctor isn't to happy about it, this week I am going on a three day retreat to Isla Espiritu Santo.

Yes.

I'm bringing a water-proof camera, so I'll try to get some good pictures.

On a slightly un-related note, a friend of mine is a shipwright and had some spare teak laying around, so he gave me a beautiful piece to craft my speargun out of. I'll have some pictures of that up later as well.

Here's a few teasers to.... well to tease you.

P.s. oh yeah, I almost forgot. TEAK is an acronym derived from TEAM (or, "The Evangelical Alliance Mission) which stands for "The Evangelical Alliance Kyakers (or something like that. Its my best guess at least). Its just a tradition of sorts where a bunch of missionary types in the baja region gather to kyak around Isla Espiritu Santo.
