Hanalei Bay photos from Cecily Kiba

Philpott

Cal 2-27 Dura Mater
Grant and Cecily are in Hanalei Bay. These photos are all from Cecily.
I'm pretty sure this is Michael Polkabla (very relaxed, what a race he had!!) and his wife being interviewed under the tree by Christine Weaver.

Below is Chris Case aboard sv FUGU, finishing under jib alone after his boom broke. Nice recovery, Sir! Cal 40s were made for this race. Thank you for the photos, Cecily.

More photos from Cecily. Here is the new 2025 ride on the Hanalei River. Not the former Sea Squirrel this fine vessel. Two big engines, and they prolly both work, too! Wow. SHTP, you've come a long way from the Sea Squirrel, baby. Something is lost and something is gained from that transition.

Below are from left to right, Grant Kiba, Dennis Maggard (cookin up the medicine), Mr Hedgehog and Alex Benderskii sv Reverie (recidivist from 2023). Did he arrive with a bird friend on his bow this time? Don't know.
