There comes a time in every boy's life, when he realizes that to become a man, he must catch a goddam shark.
Today is that day. This set comes with a small dock, a protective gate so that one does not fall into the ocean, and a simple fisherman. The guy appeared in a lot of sets in this era. Aviators, Five O'Clock shaodw, green fisherman torso and a blue cap. He appears in a lot of Leisure subtheme sets. The subtheme itself is pretty odd to be honest. Similar to the Paradisa subtheme, both emerged in the 1990s and were primarily luxury sets. Indicative of the economic prosperity of the 1990s, such sets reflected the general feeling of luxury during this era. It does seem odd though that he would be catching a shark, probably left over from the Pirates theme from several years earlier.
Lastly, what kind of a fisherman wears a lifejacket if he's on a pier? How odd.
