“I came down here with the intention of kite surfing, because that’s what I do as a hobby,” he told the MIDWEEKNATION. “I read up on it on the Internet and this is one of the spots to do.”
While his research piqued his interest in the island, it was his first interaction with a Barbadian that sealed the deal for the captain of 15 years.
