I was told that they are telling potential buyers that no boats will be getting very close to the coastline of the project once the property was
occupied with homeowners...

me thinks you're just trying to stir the pot and start a class war -- perhaps a a war between nomad pensioners and people with jobs
FYI, only stink pots prohibited. civilized boats like sailboats and kayaks will be allowed.

Actually I was told by a member of their security team that in the near future, NO boats will be allowed to come near/onto the property that are not
associated with the development ownership/management. Some may ask how they can do that but then I would ask how they managed to get gun toting ex US
Navy Seals for security, as they have right now.
Once homes are up, security will be greatly increased. Just for sh*t and giggles I suggest you try and prove me wrong once that point is reached and
take a boatload of friends up onto the property with picnic baskets and ghetto blasters.
Then report back to us how you far you got...

Hey, I'll try that picnic thing. Sounds fun.
The Navy Seals may be able to patrol the beaches and fences, but how are residents going to run the gauntlet thru TJ and down the coast? Armored
helicopter gunships? Armored cars?

Nope, residents will arrive by helicopters. They have already been purchased and sitting at Brown field in San Diego.

Too absurd. If they have helicopters now, they'll use them to fly potential suc___ - uh buyers down so they won't see the border crossing mess, the
less expensive seaside homes en route, and sewer drainage running into the ocean.

What helo's BG
After reading some of this I stopped at the FBO at Brownfield.
What are you talking about?????????? My uncle has a plane stored there, he thinks this is funny. I was in CV when I read your post and drove over to
the FBO-NO copters via mgmt. What was really interesting is a group of seal's had just finished a jump and we chatted- Seals for protection for a
project in Mexico, that has a very limited chance of survival. And the project is a good 2 year out. And you really think these planes are bought
and ready to go? Ck the people involved the money guys. Red McCombs-auto dealerships and Clear Channel. He may have some mega bucks but the man is
not stupid. Brady Oman, do some research, ck their stocks etc.
Most important is do you think Vonny Fleet or Sergios would be denied fishing in that area?

Chickens Come Home To Roost
This crowd consists of people that have been stealing the common folks money for the last three decades. They're going to need fortresses when the
revolution begins. Can anyone think of a better location to fortify.

Mr. and Mrs. Slim are in. I'll bring some wine and a bag full of Tamales. Mrs. Slim will make some cookies ---yea, picnic on the back Nine
Both of our Kayaks can carry plenty. I think this will be the "Experience" Tiger was looking for.

Are you speaking on behalf of Carlos? Maybe you should change your name to Flaco to avoid confusion.

The helicopters are bought and have already been used to transport buyers. If they are not at Brown right now they are probably in use as they also
run them up to Long Beach and LA for clients / business.
Of course they can't keep the fishing fleet from fishing in the area. My point was that neither they or anybody else will be pulling their boat (or
kayak) up on the beach there once residents begin to arrive. That is just a fact.
I am not a spokesman for them or defending them. Just trying to explain to the group what the cold, hard reality is going to be like, whether we like
it or not. Pretending this is just like Trump is to have little clue what the difference is between a development carrying the name of a rude dude
with a bad comb-over trying to attract middle class buyers who want to "pretend" they can live like the rich and famous and a development promoted by
the biggest name in marketing today going after the truly rich and famous.
I have said it before and I will say it again - The folks who will buy at Punta Brava are the kind of folks that would pay a million dollars just for
the privilege of playing a round of golf with Tiger Woods. These same folks wouldn't pay ten dollars to have lunch with Donald Trump. Talking about
the "TJ Gauntlet" is totally lost on them as it is something they would never even be concerned with...

and the source of information was security guards (claiming to be Navy Seals) on an empty parcel on a dead end road in Mexico.
If David K doesn't verify it, it ain't true!

Ya'all crazy..........Pull yo heads outa yo behinds and quit tryn to think like rich folk who have so much money they don' need you or me to

No - my sources are a few steps higher up the food chain.
Really sorry if this irritates you all so much but I am just trying to pass along some good info. Obviously you don't want to hear it so I will just
let you paint your own picture you want to believe.
I hope it works out for you...

Can't fight this kind of money, Woody. It's way beyond us. Look what happened to Loreto.
Next time you pass through, Woody, stop in for a cold one.

"Look what happened to Loreto."
What we said came to pass: The Village at Loreto Bay as it was so ill-conceived did not happen because of all the reasons we had already figured out.
Not even one-tenth of the residences of the planned LB project were sold, and only .3% are currently built. NONE of the "promises" will be
fulfilled. NONE. That is not success. The result is a scar on an otherwise beautiful landscape.
"Can't fight this kind of money." You'd think people with this kind of money had some brains to go along with it. Didn't somebody say that about
Citibank and their affiliation with LB? Who's holding the bag?
As for cliches, I like this one: "A fool and his money are soon parted."
I'll start writing letters as I did with the LB project - I wrote to Citibank, newspapers, magazines, etc. Gave them a little enlightenment.
