If you love and miss legendary Greg "Fingers" Taylor then head on over to www.backtotheisland.org and grab your "Harpoon Man" tee today! It is really awesome!

BTTI collaborated with Finger's family and kept the original design. It is one of my favorite tees that we have done thus far along with Jimmy's LIVE BY THE BAY tee!

Purchases will help out great causes like Save the Manatee, Reef Relief, and SurfRider Florida Keys.

Cheers,
