I sent my Green deck, white hull Fai 3x Tiger built Va'a on a demo over a month ago and lost the contact information for the guy who took it. If you know him or see him with the canoe, please have him bring the boat back and/or let me know who has the canoe.. It's the only solid (dark lime) green Va'a I've seen out there so should be easy to spot. jkfoti@gmail.com or 808 927-0711.

Contrary to the information on the event Saturday regarding the size class of the SUP, WE ARE ALLOWING 14' AND UNDER BOARDS. You do NOT have to use a 12'6".

Don't be afraid to enter this race. Just because there are 5 events that you can participate in, doesn't mean you have to race them all. Chose what you want and leave it at that. www.flpregister.com to register. Pre reg online until 5:00 pm Friday the 24th.

Hey folks, gonna do my first OC1 race tomorrow (very excited). Doing the short course which starts (and finishes) in Hawaii Kai but I can't seem to find exactly where? HELP! Thank you.

I was doing the run from DH buoy to Honolulu Harbor buoy the other day, about 15min for HH. A large commercial charter boat came up from port astern converging at about 25 degrees, where he then put his boat across my bow at about 60 yd. He had fishing lines and outriggers set, so I had to either alter course or stop until the the lines safely passed. He'd already seen me in the water, because his route circles around the area. Any thoughts?

The OZone-Kai Wa'a Kualoa Challenge will START AND FINISH at Kualoa Beach Park on Saturday.

The wind is forecast to be very light from the south. Surf will probably subside by Saturday. We love to go around Mokapu Peninsula, but instead, surf pending, we'll run out around Kapapa Island, down the channel and inside the bay back to Kualoa. No car drops, just come to the country and plant for a while. Registration as usual from 7:00 - 9:00. with 10:00 start.

Short course will stay inside and go towards the Sand Bar and back.

Lost a Makana Alii paddle and oc1 seat last night outside of Kaimanas. Makana Alii was an older paddle, buss up, no varnish on shaft. Seat is an older Pueo seat. Contact 808-seven five three six three five four

Race tomorrow is on schedule. Wind will be smoking with higher gusts. If you have any doubts in your ability, just don't go. Ask yourself, Are you capable of swimming to shore if something happened and nobody saw you? Leashes are mandatory, bright clothing is advisable and bring extra rope and/or rubber in case anything breaks out there. If you are in the back of the pack, stay on the inside. Pre-race safety meeting is mandatory.
