A la E scow

Thank you for your superb inside info on Maui, but the all-expenses-paid-by-work trip to Maui next month has been cancelled by, ironically, a work conflict. Sigh. To console ourselves, we're paying our own way to Finland, the happiest country on earth. It's going to be a long ways from sailing season, but you can swim off of the back of an ice breaker. Bow wants to pet a reindeer. She says if she gets to pet a reindeer, the Foredeck Union will consider the trip a success. Thanks again.

Oh.

Well hell. When did La Vagabond switch from the Amel to Outremer? What was the reason? As you can tell, I generally have better things to to than watch this stuff.

Yeah, I spent all day today surfing, and have some time on the North Shore, but Peahi is out of my league. We'll drag one travel board with us. It's good up to maybe double overhead. After that, we'll probably be doing something else.

Honolua?

I like racing single handed. Cruising is awesome with Bow, and pointless alone.

In vino veritas

Fuck. I'm smitten. Quick, someone tell me what sucks about Dragons.

My apologies if this is the wrong forum. Thank you for the info.

These boats are absolutely gorgeous. Are they Dragons? Cascais, Portugal

Thanks a million; you guys are awesome. Perfect. So far, Mrs is totally psyched to mountain bike down Haleakala after watching the sunrise, do some whale watching, and eat at Mamas. We weren't really looking to bare boat, someone had mentioned snorkel cruises were good so we were looking into that. That's a good point about underwater visibility and waves. Assumed a rocky volcanic bottom and hadn't though about that. Lahaina YC in on MY list, and we'll go. She is very patient while I look at what she calls "boat porn".

My wife's company is giving us an all expenses paid trip to Maui in January, which is great and we are happy for, but the Hawaiian Islands have never been on our radar. What is there to do on Maui? Preferably along the lines of sailing, surfing, snorkeling, and drinking, in that order.

Have you spoken with the Foredeck Union?
