Big Island

Results of the 20th Anniversary Law Enforcement Long Distance Race and Regatta, held at Saturday, February 16th at Kailua Pier in Kailua-Kona.

The participants were from all divisions of Law Enforcement and Fire Departments in the State of Hawaii (see list of participants) and the event was held to benefit the Special Olympics.

Results of today's HIPA race, the 3rd Annual Hurricane Invitational. Paddlers entered the Alenuihaha Channel at Keokea Bay, and paddled around the northern tip of the Big Island to the finish line at the Old Coast Guard station at Honoipu Landing, 10 miles to the south. Low tide and big surf took its toll on a number of canoes as they negotiated the narrow channel out to sea at Keokea Bay, with rudder-wrecking rocks just under the surface of the water.
