: Does anyone know of a source of Okoume in Southern California, the closer to

: had to but I'm hoping that somewhere in the vast, over-industrialized L.A.

: sheet that it's going for here in San Diego.

: Thanks - my choice of which boat is depending on it!

Hi Paul

There were a few posts earlier this week.. or around the 30th to 1st asking the same question and I believe they found an answer to their search. Same subject title I believe.

At those prices, it would almost pay to drive up to Santa Cruz / Watsonville to Jackel Enter. and get it for around $32 - $34.00 I believe. But, I'm sure you will get what you want in the South somewhere. Good luck with your hunt.
