Grew up in the area surfing Moanalua bay and surfing behind boats in the marina when there were no waves. This is back in the late 70s/80s before wake boarding and dock crushers were in the islands. LOL. Is he in the colonnade or in the condos on Hawaii Kai Drive?Hawaii Kai Oahu, Hawaii
My flight got cancelled so I called up my friend and we hit the water. My buddy’s view from his new condo. His boat is docked out front, that’s Diamond Head in the background. Pretty sweet setup. He takes his boat to all the best surf spots. Everyone knows each other out here too. They take the boat to all kinds of restaurants, bars and Costco. Great boating in Hawaii

I think he was in the Colonnade and now lives in the tall white condos on Lunalilo Home Rd.

The absolute truth. Then again, I’d be walking down the street picking up cans for beer/gas money.Just a couple hours away…….any time! We all have to just stop working and be in Havasu full time.
We’re gonna launch tomorrow and hit lunch and springs and with beach uo at 3 dunes or just tie up outside of the springs and float. Let’s roll! Trying to get @RiverDave to go!!

Yes, yes i did. Boat beatch today. Had to head back early. Some idiot decided to get a puppy.Looks like you got the day off as captain. Nice looking toon!!!
Were you the one not letting the Nordic in. Looked like a fun time.
Think asked $150K for quite some time and yeah, that was stripped interior for racing Catalina kinda thing as I recall. Good to see the boys found a home for her and fresh build coming.Finally sold? That thing needs a lot of money to get on the water.
I was so close to that DCB we could barely squeeze a bumper in. Fight almost broke out with those people in the cheetah and the Nordic guy’s buddy in the sunsation. Couldn’t believe how packed it got!Were you the one not letting the Nordic in. Looked like a fun time.

No joke, we could see it heating up from where we were. Thought the lady was writing some checks for the men on the table. Was glad we weren’t sitting there.
It was way more packed than anyone thought it would be. It was also a little colder on the ride down than i planned on.
We started running down to havasu prongs got north of 3 dunes and CC lost a lower drive. Limped over to steamboat and hung for the day. Not terrible. Boating in Feb could be worse!
That’s getting on plane.This guy! I followed him all the way out of the bay to watch him take off. BIG lobe in that blower motor. My boys and I were idling out and I was telling them, we need to get into a spot to watch him take off. My 13 year old was like “why” I said, dude, just wait. The instant it took off my kid was like OF! Big smile.
Pretty sure it was an eliminator 19 pickle. Bad ass and sounded insane.
