We sailed to King Lewey's island in tbelize and were surpirsed to find the entire island was for sale. It gave us the idea to start the Sailing Doodles Island Reost and Marina. What do you think? is it a good idea?

Bobby - A few ideas: Sailing Doodles Island Sailing & Diving Academy? Boaters B-N-B, moorings/marina, Regattas, Yacht rentals etc? Seminar and meeting facilities with all inclusive pricing for excellent value? Fan based funding in return for shares of stock. Automated booking with Doodle Island Phone app and website? "Doodle Girls" Hosting and Concierge Services? 🤔 HURRICANES. In the past 100 years, Belize has experienced 8 hurricanes that causes any real damage. Of those only hurricane Hattie in 1961 caused any extensive damage to the Hopkins area. What about storm surges and potential flooding?

It might be a nice vacation compound for someone with money. They could use it to host family get-togethers. You don't need to rent it out if you are wealthy. But a private island in Central America would not be for me. Living on an island in general is a logistical PITA. I live on one and everything is more expensive, harder to source and your movement on and off is weather dependent. Security on something this small is an issue too, as is staff, etc. No thanks. $3M invested at 6% nets you $180,000 before tax, annually, with zero effort. That buys a lot of vacation rentals.

Maybe the better idea would be to see if there's a similar island you can buy in the Bahamas or off Florida if possible. Have a type thing with hotel and grounds similar to this....put Gee or Syndney in charge (or even better be to have Taylor run the place.) You could be flown in by Dakota and planes could just land on the water from FL. like fantasy island...have a dive school ...swim with nurse sharks...treasure hunts... yacht rentals .... restaurant or a pizza and delivery to all the boats moored nearby.... sounds like a plan!!! Love the Island doodles name.

all business ventures come with risk that needs to be managed. the real deal breaker for something like this is more likely the cost of insurance for the island then the risk from hurricanes or tsunami.
