Surfing in Newfoundland

 


© 2009 Morag Loves Company

When a swarthy Italian, Surfer Dude arrives in an isolated coastal town in rural Newfoundland, and begins to ride the big waves that break there, the locals are perplexed. Surfing in Newfoundland? Turns out the Dude is a smuggler, waiting for a hundred kilo “drop off” of … something. In a shocking, heartwarming, hilarious twist of many fates, the Dude’s scheme becomes a giant community event, complete with a five boat flotilla of cops, townsfolk, the immigration department, fisheries patrol, friends, surfers, and an Old Skipper and his wife who are more wily than all of them put together. Surfing in Newfoundland; it’s great once you’re in!
