Great tribute to a man who wrote the soundtrack of our lives, as we were all living it -- on the beach over 50 years ago ! And he kept the stoke alive ever after. Jimmy was that special man that squeezed all the juice out of life, served it up to us in a bottomless Margarita, along with an appropriate song, and a planeload of memories ! He really was the Jolly Mon -king of oceanic folklore and the troubadour of "tropical country". Thanks for sharing this tribute Bill. Much Aloha Spirit here.

Thanks for sharing all the stories Stewart! It sounds like he really admired you. "isn't it amazing how well we've done?" sure he knew he had made it big but, he truly admired you and your craft. Very cool.

Thank You Mr. Stewart for sharing these great Jimmy Buffett stories with us. You were obviously a special person in Jimmy's life and talented and it was moving to hear how his generosity was a natural part of your friendship.

[@stewartsurfboards4837]

Thanks so much! 😊

Great stories and tribute to really nice and talented person.When I heard he passed, the first thing I thought of; are his boards still being stored up in the rafters of the shop? The only thing better would've been if you had a margarita on the table instead of a glass of wine.

[@stewartsurfboards4837]

Thanks! True, it shoulda been a margarita!

[@kevintaugher]

what a beautiful tribute Bill. I was a big fan of Jimmy. I also have 3 of your boards which I love and surf daily.

[@stewartsurfboards4837]

Thanks! Hope the boards are bringing you as much joy as Jimmy brought to everyone around him.
