A beautiful sunset off the starboard stern of the Hokualaka`i with Kekua at the helm

Kalepa checking charts at night, calculating our position by speed of the canoe and the course we have taken

Ikaika recording items on a checklist at dawn. The canoe sails 24 hours a day with 2 teams

Kaimana getting some video of Kalepa as he checks his charts in the morning

A flock of Noio roosting on the water just off our starboard beam.

Mona with his bucket of equipment about to go fishing with drag lines off both sides of the canoe

Ikaika and Kekua (behind) waking up in their pukas before the start of their shift

Kekua, Snake and Kalepa on navigation platform. You get hungry on the ocean, so its good to have pupus to eat

Francis on the steering sweep, as we sail south, approaching Ka Lae, where Hokualaka`i sailed at 6 to 8 knots

Snake and Kaimana looking for Ka Lae, while Green Sand cove can be seen in the background.

Every once in a while Ikaika dove into the holds to retrieve buckets of food for our meals. A very well organized trip

We round Ka Lae at 12:30, as Kaimana sounds the conch. It was a great effort to redirect the canoe in such strong winds

Holy toledo, who let this guy drive? Gary at the helm, while Tava keeps a watchful eye on things

A beautiful sunrise as the crew wakes up from a night of rest moored in Puuhounua o Honaunau bay
