Congratulations to everyone who took part in the HCRA
State Championships in Maui this year. Mahalo to the race
organizers who put on a first class regatta, the volunteers, the
vendors, and the people of Maui for making this a memorable
and successful event.
Every Hawaiian island has unique things to do. In Maui, we
wanted to drive to Hana or to the top of Haleakala, but time
limited us to one short adventure, so we went to the Maui
Ocean Center. This has to be one of the best aquariums in the
world and an excellent place to learn and share with the family
the unseen marine life that surrounds us - that only a few
divers have the opportunity to visit. The Maui Ocean Center
brought us an awareness on how fragile life is in the ocean.
As paddlers and caretakers of the waters we enjoy, we have a
responsibility to help keep our oceans clean. Adopt a beach and
help save our aquatic neighbors.
