Results of the East Hawaii Challenge canoe races in Hilo

By Jane Bockus | Special to Hawaii 24/7

Today (March 31) was beautiful day in Hilo for the East Hawaii Challenge race for OC-1, OC-2 and Rudderless V-1 canoes that brought 76 participants out to paddle on the 7.3 mile short course and the 10.5 mile long course, both of which began at Richardson’s Park in Keaukaha, and finished in front of Laka’s halau at Hilo Bayfront.

This was a very well organized event, with lots of prizes, delicious food, and happy paddlers.

Mahalo to Aaron Makaimoku and Sampson Castillo for sponsoring this super event and for being flexible enough to switch the date when treacherous conditions cancelled the original date last week.
HIPA is proud of you!
