good day to work on Mayuki so i went down there to give her some tender loving care. this scupper has been breaking every time i fix it. frustrating each and every time so i had to think of something better.

called my friend on the mainland and he fabricated me the perfect one. i gave him the measurements and he made it custom out of fiberglass. i drilled holes, mounted it, and now it’s freaking perfect! i wish i did this 3 years ago!

then time to tune up my spearguns. my guns are so old and simple that they don’t make parts for it anymore. i think it’s about time to say goodbye to them after all those beautiful fish they provided me with.

so i went to Maui Sporting Goods and ended up talking about guns to my friend Dane all afternoon. i know exactly what i want so unless i find the perfect gun, i won’t but it.

so i came home and looked in my piles of old guns to see if i can switch parts and make a custom one. trial and error i guess.

this is the gun i really want but can’t get. why? because they don’t sell it in hawaii. i’ve been looking for it everyday for a while and i’m about to give up. it’s a 105cm Bleutech Simple Open Carbon and cost about 400 euros. yeah, they make it in Athens, Greece and if i don’t find one soon, i’m going to fly to Greece to buy one. that’s how much i want it. i always wanted to go to Greece anyway so why not?
