PESO:

The indigenous people who live in the villages around Lake Atitlan make
their living by farming, fishing and tourism.  The fishermen fish for bass
in the deepest lake in Central America.  They make their own cayucos, or
boats, out of avocado wood.  A strong wind comes up every afternoon and all
boats have to be off the water then or they get swamped and sink.
