Just came across this in a thread in the general forum and thought I would share it with others out there like me that had never clicked on the "about" button up the top right of the page.

Excellent story, both the content and the delivery!

It's said that people consistently overestimate what they can achieve in a year and underestimate what they can achieve in a decade. Seabreeze reflects a decade (and a bit) of hard work well spent.

Thanks Laurie!

Congrats, only the brave follow their dreams. Loved the caption, "He with the most toys". I know some wifeys' would say die, but most should say "Has the most fun". What better way to bring joy into the house with surfing, kiting or whatever sport your into to. In my opinion, a happy husband can bring a happy household.

One of Laurie's mates who is a graphic designer (or something similar) - hit Laurie up with a PM if you need further information

Thanks guys. The site is nothing without you crew.

@galah
The hair was funny. I was a heavy metal guitarist (still am) and hair was "part of the scene, man".

@kitelooper1
Cartoon was by a fantastic guy & (obviously) a great cartoonist .. Colin Bartley. We sat, drank beer, discussed ideas & that's what popped out. Needless to say, Colin is a salt water junkie like the rest of us, and a funny bugger too.

@djdojo
Agree, focus on the big stuff, and the little stuff takes care of itself. Achieving that consistently is challenging though...

@sir Rowdy,
I reckon you're madder.

@Tony Armstrong
agree .. house is much happier with the addition of a 6'6 fish two weeks ago.

Awesome work Laurie - it's so easy to take what we have for granted until someone tells their story pure and simple.

Thanks for the heads up every afternoon before I head to the beach diving, fishing and kiting!!
