Have you ever dreamed of learning more about sharks? There are over 400 species of sharks of all sizes, shapes and colors.  They live in very different habitats.  Some sharks even live beneath the ice in the Arctic Ocean.  South Floridians  love the beach and all what “salt life” encompasses.

Sharks are gentle and amazing creatures.  They sense smell and that tells them where to go for prey.  Humans kill millions of these prehistoric creatures every year.  Humans should love sharks.  You have a greater chance of being seriously injured by a cow or a car accident.

On the beautiful Jupiter Inlet stands a historical piece of real estate, a 1906 Sperry built boathouse.  Located within the Suni Sands mobile home park property, the significant structure will be demolished and transform into a historic hotel on the 10-acre site of the Jupiter Inlet.

William Sperry and his wife, who were owners of Sperry & Hutchinson Green Stamps, built the boathouse.  Most people of a certain age, who are from the South Florida area, will recall S & H Green Stamps from Publix.  Customers collected the stamps at the grocery store or gas station, pasted them into booklets and then redeemed them for various items from books, to shoes, to canoes and more.

Most people when they think of Florida think of white beaches and the sparkling blue waters off the Atlantic Ocean.
