Here's
Paul cruising out of Kaneohe Bay. Notice the professionally lashed tiller bar
(we forgot to bring a pin that day). If this picture lacks any kind of dynamic
action, it's because Paul let out all the sails when he saw me take his camera
out of his drybag. What a pansy.
In the background is Mokolii Island, also known as "Chinaman's hat" for its stereotypical shape.
Here's me at the helm. I'm quite impressed by my color coordination. I'll have to talk to the fellas at the yacht dealership about trading in my "tequila sunrise" sails for a nice new set of "ocean blue."
Here's the port side rudder. I'm very concerned about salt water corrosion on the hulls, so I try to keep at least one out of the water at all times. You'll also notice how my surf sock matches the rest of my outfit (in the other pictures).
Most people don't realize that I was a martial arts consultant for the Matrix films. Here I am demonstrating one of my new moves, "dragon wing on dragon wing."
Here I'm enjoying the simple minded thrill of being nearly blown over by a gust of wind while flying a hull. You should be impressed with the photographer who managed to stay on the trampoline during this manouever.
Behind me are the picturesque cliffs of Puu Kanehoalani, between Kaneohe and Kahana Bay.
