Hawaiian canoe adventure

6 paddlers taking a Hawaiian canoe out for a spin in Kaneohe Bay!

6 paddlers taking a Hawaiian canoe out for a spin in Kaneohe Bay!

This is adventure day #3 :) Six of us (4 of whom had never paddled before) rented a Hawaiian canoe (wa’a) from base. We paddled out into the bay and learned the basics from our experienced buddies, Angel and Heidi. Angel called out the strokes for us (1 through 10, then hut, ho and switch) while Heidi kept us on course and the ama (the float portion on the starboard side) down so we didn’t huli (flip). We had a great time and got an awesome core workout! More pictures in the album (click photo above).
