Results of Keauhou Canoe Club’s 11th Annual Auntie Mary Jane Heihei held Saturday, June 5 at Keauhou Bay, Kona, Hawaii. This long distance race was conceived by Mary Jane Kahanamoku eleven years ago as a fill-in for Graduation weekend when there are no regattas scheduled. For the past several years, the event has restricted all entries to co-ed crews consisting of 3 men and 3 women. Today’s long course was won by an Open crew from Keauhou Canoe Club in the Mirage canoe named after Mary Jane (the Malia Kini). First canoe to cross the line in the short course was the Golden Masters 55+ crew from Kawaihae Canoe Club.

WAILUKU - It's no secret that Hawaiian Canoe Club's four state championships in five years have been keyed by its strong keiki crews.
Winners of six straight keiki division state championships following coach Paul Luuwai's master blueprint, few would argue that HCC doesn't have superior youth crews.

Under clear blue skies and almost no wind, Guams best outriggers paddled offshore for a change in the ‘Choose Your Weapon’ Race. Sponsored by Outrigger Guam Canoe Club and the Guam Kayak and Canoe Federation, both OC1 and OC6 canoes paddled in hot and flat conditions that made fitness and mental toughness more important than course line or surfing ability.
