Cruising in Hawaii
Can anyone recommend one or two nice short sailing destinations out of
Honolulu? Will be crusing for 4 to 5 days in late November and trying to figure out a nice spot to sail to. thanks Jim |

Never "cruised" in Hawaii, but I went to Maui this summer to check out
the "marina situation" in anticipation of possibly moving there. Phew! There's only two marinas on Maui, one at Lahina and one at Ma'alaea, and both of them are so nasty bad that they would make a truck stop in Enid, Oklahoma look like a paradise in comparison. Both were full of mostly old derelict boats and tourist "Sunset Cruise" boats, dirty, unkept, no facilities, etc. Lahina has an anchorage area about 400 - 500 yards off shore with several dozen boats, but with the exception of this anchorage and the two "yucko" marinas, there's really no other "destination" spots on Maui. Unbelieveable for a sailing environment as nice as Hawaii. I just wonder what the "officialdom" of Hawaii is thinking, there's a huge potential for sailing but only two crappy marinas on Maui. Gonna try Oahu next. Trent Sanders S/V Cimba (Jim) wrote in message . com... Can anyone recommend one or two nice short sailing destinations out of Honolulu?
