It's right around the corner! Who here on OCP is planning to make the trip north?

I broke a rudder cable today on my 2 month old Scorpius xs. I repaired it with my stand by stainless steel airplane cable when I got home, not sure about spectra...it snapped clean, no abrasions, about 1/2 inch above the connection at the rudder end. It was also a pain to get to with the tiny opening above the hardware...it would have been really hard to do in the water had I not been able to limp it in and borrow a cell phone for a pick up. Anybody have any on the water repair ideas for the xs cable system?

Any updates on the Pueo II? Who is riding it? Which Kamanu team riders are switching? I figure it is in full production now.

Mana Ama with Iakos was stolen from Na Keiki O Ka Mo'i Canoe Club site at Poka'i Bay in Wai'anae late Monday night or early Tuesday morning.

Thieves cut lashing cord on hull and took off with ama and iakos. Ama is all white with green border around tapa pattern inlay. Green "Mana Ama" lettering with a red Quicksilver logo sticker on forward end. Image below taken Monday afternoon returning from Waikiki Regatta.

A green and yellow Makia was stolen from the youth storage at Honokohau Harbor, Kona, Hawaii.
The thieves managed to take only the hull. If anyone has seen this canoe being taken from the harbor or has seen it, please let me know. A reward is being given for information that leads to its recovery. Mahalo!
