Whoever buys it knows they can be taken out of "businss" in an instant if whaever arrangements John has with the local powers change or the whole scene changes to the right. Remember how the the glory days of the clubs in SanJuan, PR changed rapidly on a politiican's campaign? And there is wind of that in the political air in this presidential campaign.

All the buyer would then have left is a big pink monster. Dicey move.

$20+MM, even if I had the money, I'd pass. I always wondered if there is an underworld element that come into play down there. Be it casino's, strip clubs, MP's, etc. Seem like the type of place and businesses that are conducive to it. Not to mention the political graft.

Interesting read, thanks for diggin it up, Paco.

PURA VIDA!

Livin' & Lovin' in Key Largo....oh....And the one in The Keys, too!

I used to visit the NY Bar when the early afternoon, old timer crowd came in.

one guy there, wears a cowboy hat, claims to have been the last occupant of the Del Rey before it was converted.

heard some great stories at the NY Bar from the mid afternoon crowd.


anyway, this reminds me of a Sea Story, this is no shit, back when I was working as a pickpocket, we had an old timer named Bobby, he had been a paratrooper in his younger days and had seen action in the DR when old man Johnson dropped in some troops to settle things when the good people of the DR made the mistake of electing someone a little too far left....

anyway, we used to beg Bobby for war stories and shit, between picking pockets and stuff....and I always would inquire about how much the little darlings charged..."Were they mad to see you dropping in out of the sky, Bobby?", I asked.

"Hell no", he replied, "they were glad to see us"

"Well then, how much did they ask?"

Bobby got this far away look and said "It was FREE, until those fools from the Navy showed up and offered to pay for it".
