i thnk scotty is still a little upset at this article http://www.fijitimes.com/story.aspx?id=175560 which hints at the true story as most of you would not know that namotu is 50% owned by tavarua and for 20 years they essentially controlled all of the best surf in fiji for their own interests.. scotty is now backpeddling and trying to distance himself from that relationship.. and for the record i started namotu and if it wasnt for me scotty wouldnt be there.. have another drink scotty.
image attached namotu 93 long before scotty got there i had established the bar which is still the central feature of the resort and developed all of the infrastructire out there inc planting all the trees...i had the lease from 90-95 and was bought out by tavarua, scotty and partners ( with shady brackgrounds )..i used to windsurf in those days it was epic..
I bet you would luv to find another place just like that and do it all again!
That shot makes it look vulnerable to mother nature, did you ever have any problem with big tide and big swell?
I assume you also leased from the same landowners, when you set it up was there also an exclusive arrangement back then on the local breaks?
Or maybe another place to discuss!
Certainly good for all the other locals nowdays, maybe a little crowded for those that have enjoyed it for so long as it was!
Yeah ha Adam, yep wouldnt be here because you are the man. Thanks buddy. Whats it been? 16 years ? All because of you. Also you called it Magic Island. Guess it wasnt so magic for you. Build a bridge
