Results of the 6th Annual Starbucks JJ's Big Island Challenge.
The canoes/surfskis launched at the Puako Boat Ramp and finished the 31 mile course at Honokohau Harbor.

The first canoe to cross the line in 3:32:00 was the OC-2 with the four man crew of Nue Youderian, Lyle Palakiko, Leo Santimer and Steve Arnett. These men broke the record of 3:37:36 which was set last year on an OC-1 by the two man team of Bruce Ayau and Ikaika Hauanio.
