History
Wanderbird was built as a classic North Sea fishing trawler by the H. de Hass shipyard in Maassluis, Holland. She was launched as beam trawler for the Jaczon's, a Dutch fishing family, in 1963 and fished until 1990. A beam or side trawl carries fishing nets from the side of the vessel. The Dutch have a reputation for being some of the worlds finest shipbuilders, and the North Sea has a reputation for being one of the most cold, harsh, rough seas in the world. She was built to Dutch standards and operated year round in the extreme conditions of the North Sea for 27 years! We chose Wanderbird for her ability to combine tough, dependable transportation with comfort, safety and 19th century European style. Her massively constructed steel hull and high bulwarks make her an optimal choice for safely carrying passengers in Alaska, the North Atlantic and Canadian Maritmes.

Juanita Bananas located on Culebra Island, PR is a new concept in
Island Cookery. We have dedicated 1 acre of land surrounding the
restaurant for the purpose of cultivating most of the vegetables, fruits & herbs to be used in the preparation of our unequaled fresh delicacies.

This is being accomplished by the creation of a double system of
growing based on hydroponics for leafy vegetables, herbs, tomatoes
& cucumber. The second system for larger inground crops such as citrus, bananas, papayas, pigeon peas & squash is with drip irrigation.

The food is in the tradition of the SEAFARER'S INN restaurant founded
in 1970 by my parents where all the seafood came from Culebra waters.
