Kona Leeward (West)is the dry side, Hilo Windward (East) is the wet side of the Big Island. We had the weather gods on our side, as we had perfect weather for all 21 days.

Maui, The two-masted brig "Carthaginian II"

The two-masted brig "Carthaginian II" was a replica of an 19th Century island "lugger" like the ones that brought the missionaries to The Islands. Because of high daily cost and safety, the Carthaginian II was taken out to sea and sunk to become an attraction for dive tours.

Aloha, Rest In Peace, Carthaginian II
