| Jared(I used to work on the boat) - Wed Jan 7 05:11:16 2009 |
Hey all. My name is Jared i used to work on the boat from the late 80's- l early 2000's. I used to work on the boat in the summer time. I was one of many John John's illegitimate kids...lol. Man i sure do miss those times unfortunatly i haven't been able to make it out there since 2003 i miss it soooo much. I am hoping i can make it out there this summer for a much overdue reunion with Krash, and John John. Maybe i will see some of the other guys that be awesome. Well if anyone sees Eric tell him Jared says aloha. Jared

Aloha Scott,
I was just reviewing your site and thinking about our last sail in February of 08. Our company sent a group of us from California to Hawaii for the Pro-Bowl. It was nice to meet you, and Shugo, and to see Clint again. LJ is my younger brother, so I go back a long ways with John-John and his cats over the years. As usual, we spent our allotted time in Dukes!! ;-) You were all very gracious hosts, mahalo for the good times. Please say hello to John-John for me!

We just had to write and tell you all what a great time we had sailing with you all!. The music, the scenery, the turtles, the dolphins, the fun crew and delicious drinks!!! Krash was wonderful, letting us sit with him in the back as he answered sailing questions and the gave us fun facts on Hawaii. Shugo and Dustin were also at our command it seemed, always checking to see if we needed anything! At $25 a head, it was without a doubt the best deal & most fun we had our whole trip! Next time we are able to come, we will see you all 1st instead of last!!
Mahalo from Jeff, Diane, Reese and Cindy!!!!!!!!

| Amy & Megan from San Diego - Sat Aug 30 14:55:38 2008 |
Aloha Krash, Terry, Mike, Dustin, & Shugo! Just wanted to say that we had the best time with you guys this week on Da' Big Yellow Boat, we never wanted to get off (even 3 days in a row was not enough!) It's so addicting. You were all amazing and made our first trip to Hawaii truly memorable. And a special mahalo to MIKE for all the great recommendations on the local bars, and for never letting our drinks run out! Mahalo and hopefully be back again.
|
| Jen & Liz - Sun Aug 24 18:05:14 2008 |
Hey Crash, Shugo, Mike, Eric & Scotty!!! We had the BEST time with you guys last week! Too much fun!! We loved that champagne & passion juice drink...FABULOUS!

Aloha! Just returned home from Honolulu. Took our 12th ride on your wonderful boat. We brought family this time and the dolphins put on a spectacular show for us swimming beside and under the boat and twirling in the air!!! Called home while in front of your Webcam at the Moana. Needless, to say, we had a lot fun with that. Mahalo for another wonderful adventure on the sea! See you in February....with 4 friends making their first trip to Paradise!

Glad to hear dry dock wasn't long. I Can't wait to get on da boat. Going to Kauai and Maui in 16 days. If work wasn't a problem, we'd extend our trip to Oahu for Na Ho Ku. Hello J.J, Krash, Shugo, Dustin, Bear and Scott. See you soon. And Hello Brewster!!!!!!!!!
|
| Rex - Sat Jun 21 06:03:55 2008 |
Aloha Brewster!!!! I'm going back out Aug 2 as a matter of fact. Using one of the vouchers that we got in March. Cost me $58 out of pocket for the round trip ticket. A little bit cheaper than gas would be to go to Sturgis. Don't worry, I'll make sure that I drink a couple of beers a day for you so that they don't go bad. We still have two vouchers left, so I hope that American Airlines does'nt go out of buisness too soon. Month and a week until it's "Nahoku II" time, can't wait.

To Scott and Fariyal. Thanks for all the pictures - it makes me feel like I haven't left. It's cold here in Toronto - but I am getting that warm feeling just looking. Thanks again.

| Linda & Bill in NC - Fri Jan 25 17:28:55 2008 |
I loved the two sails I took on your boat!! It was just the best time ever! One thing I didn't care for was that photo guy hanging around on the boat before we left. We get hassled enough to part with our money all over Waikiki, but we when we paid to get on your boat, we thought we were away from all of that. He just stands around until someone lets him take their picture, then is in your way on the beach when the sail is over. It was very uncomfortable. We LOVED the trips though!!!! The captain & crew were just awesome!

Scott, I just realized in the entire month I was there the only person to ice me was Kai. I'm a little disappointed.

| Webmaster - Scott - Fri Dec 10:30:32 2007 |
Rain, Rain, Rain...2 weeks now, it just won't go away. No Boat, no Sun, no Beach...It sucks. Also, the Sheraton Beachcam was "readjusted" for "Privacy" reasons according to them. Without a doubt, the dumbest thing I've ever heard. So, no view of anything but the patio there now. Hopefully the weather system stalled over the islands will leave soon, but it's in no rush at the moment. ;-(
|
| William - Wed Dec 5 06:55:32 2007 |
What's the boat situation with all the rain that has been falling? Is it still going out? and the beach cam needs to be turned back to the beach like before. Can someone climb up and twist it?
|
| Rex - Wed Dec 5 00:58:00 2007 |
Brewster, I'm glad to see that you kept up the good work. Can't wait to be able to drink my own beer on the boat. But at least you kept the stock roatated. Bet you wish you were there now, not home in the snow.
|
| Bryan - Wed Nov 28 04:51:26 2007 |
When's that hot Canadian Hawaiian gal coming back to the islands. We miss her on the boat! Great personality and a great hostess.
The guys from California

| eric conley - Tue Nov 27 19:02:31 2007 |
Aloha John-John & crew,
This is Capt. Eric from Na Hoku 1 in Long Beach, Ca. I'm happy to see Na Hoku II back on the beach again. If anyone makes it out to Long Beach come and sail on Na Hoku 1. She's
docked at Shoreline Village. Say aloha to everyone from Eric.
|
| Sue - Mon Nov 26 08:14:20 2007 |
Anybody know the whereabouts of Houston, he was a regular on the original Na Hoku?
|
| Brewster - Sun Nov 25 13:15:20 2007 |
Hey Rex!!!! I did better than you asked for. I drank a whole case of beer on the boat and it was just for you!!!! Aloha and see you in March............

| Anna - Sat Nov 24 08:30:36 2007 |
JUST FUN, FUN, FUN (The best value and fun on Waikiki Beach!!) I visited Nov. 11-16, 2007. Thanks to Capt. Krash (or is it Crash), Shugo and Kai. A FABULOUS staff, GREAT music and what a RIDE. Highly recommended to any and all tourists. Pickup 'THE BIG YELLOW CATAMARAN'from the beach front at Moana Surfrider Hotel.
I'll be back guys (with hubby in tow) :-)
|
| Shayle - Fri Nov 23 10:06:55 2007 |
John's new career was shortlived, he is now back as captain of another boat I believe. Don't know which one though.
|
| Brewster - Wed Nov 21 09:44:47 2007 |
Had a great time the week of Nov 11th. The crew, the friends and all the great guests, was worth the wait. NaHokuII is back better than ever and it's GREAT to have Captain Krash back were he belongs!!!! Looking forward to February...Mahalo to all and Happy Holidays.
|
| Harold - Mon Nov 19 11:56:51 2007 |
My first Na Hoku ride was in 82, my last ride was in 95 this Friday I will do Na Hoku II.
|
| Holly - Sat Nov 17 10:40:15 2007 |
What ever happened to Bobby Bonvenuto from the Bronx? He worked on the Na Hoku for years...I rode with you all about 5 times in the 80's and early 90's. I will come ride again this spring..sooo happy that you are sailing again
|
| railynn - Tue Nov 6 10:31:14 2007 |
Regarding old Johnny ---Story is he has giving up being a captain for becoming a hair stylist these days. Look for him cutting hair rather than cutting waves.
|
| Brewster - Fri Nov 2 09:40:57 2007 |
I sure will Rex!!! Got ur e-mail from our friend, so I will write yah B4 we go........Aloha!

| Webmaster - Scott - Thu Nov 1 13:38:19 2007 |
| Aloha Dianne, that was a truly wonderful post to the guestbook....mahalo for sharing. It's amazing the effect the boat can have on people. Sometimes the best things in life are the little unexpected surprises you come across. I'll make sure that your kind words get passed along! And Hayley...Good News!!! The ice machine is back up to speed....see ya soon!!
|
| Dianne Hallam - Wed Oct 31 23:40:54 2007 |
We had just completed an 8 week mamouth trip around the world. Four hard working nurses and at almost 60, we were at our last destination, exhausted. Howevever, Jan and I were so lucky that day we walked up to your cat. This was the very best thing we did on the whole trip. It was better than the Eiffel Tower, Statue of Liberty or even Niagra Falls. The crew were absolutely the best. Captain Krash and everyone made our time at sea perfect. What a way to remember a trip of a lifetime. We put so much planning into everything on the trip, and then this walk along the beach turned into a lifetime of memories of a wonderful day. My Friend Jan had recently lost her 34 year old Son in a Motor Bike Accident, and her emotions were high as we sailed along the beautiful sea. Through tears she was able to heal some deep wounds. The crew were unaware at the time, but seemed to blend with her feelings. We will be forever grateful and love you all. Justin, Good Luck at Uni.
God Bless You All, Dianne and Jan
Sailed Friday 28th September, 11.00 and 3.30 We sailed twice it was so good

| Bruce - Wed Sep 26 16:58:05 2007 |
Thank you PA and Scott for getting back with the information I sought on the title of that song by Danny Couch. True Aloha spirit and REALLY appreciated.
Aloha
|
| Webmaster - Scott - Wed Sep 26 13:38:19 2007 |
Yeah Bruce, PA is right. That is Danny Couch. His song has been used to promote Hawaii tourism for years and is often seen/heard in the boarding videos on airline flights bound for Hawaii. Another cool thing is that he lives a few floors down from me in my bldg. We run into each other from time to time in the elevator. He's extremely nice!
|
| A Friend from PA - Wed Sep 26 07:57:46 2007 |
Aloha! It is so-o-o-o special to see all the beautiful pictures. I can feel the sand between my toes and taste the salt air........hurry up June!
The song that Bruce is wondering about is on a CD titled Almost Paradise by Danny Couch. Carol was so kind as to help me with the same info last year. Can't wait to sail again on that red and yellow boat! Aloha!
|
| Bruce - Mon Sep 24 15:46:19 2007 |
Scott: When I click on "Contacts and Links" there is the background music of a soloist singing a piece which could be titled "Have you seen the Islands" or "this is Aloha" My late wife Eunice loved that piece, and I would like to get a copy of it. Can you direct or help me? Aloha
|
| Dee - Mon Sep 24 02:15:05 2007 |
Glad to hear that Gord will be back to the beach soon! Hope the hip is fully recovered!
|
| Courtney - Sun Sep 23 10:49:38 2007 |
Gord i dont know if you saw but i wrote a msg for you too in the comment below
|
| Courtney - Sun Sep 23 10:47:41 2007 |
Hey Scott sorry it took me so long to reply, my summer was pretty good but i wish i could go to hawaii...i miss it i haven't been in almost 2 years, my brother was lucky he got to visit.
Gord ahh wow are you ok? that sounds horrible and painful. I'm glad you are ok now tho, so you and fariyal are going in december? until when and whats the schedule with the kids? just wondering because i miss it and want to plan a trip out there.
|
| AJ - Thu Sep 20 16:21:33 2007 |
Had a great time last October. Will bring my daughter back in 2 weeks.
|
| Gord - Thu Sep 20 07:59:57 2007 |
If you are looking for pictures of me this past summer, there are none. I had to stay back in Calgary because of complications with my total hip replacement. I suffered blood clots and was placed on medication requiring weekly blood tests. In December, I return and stay for three months.
|
| Dee - Tue Sep 18 04:47:59 2007 |
I see lot's of Pics of Farial and the kids all summer. Where's Gord???
|
| Webmaster - Scott - Wed Sep 12 19:49:44 2007 |
Aloha Courtney! It's been great! How was yours?
|
| Courtney - Wed Sep 12 15:42:02 2007 |
Hey Scott, haven't been on the site in awhile...no access to internet in months.. so i see the boat is doing well.. how was your summer???
|
| Mario - Mon Sep 10 17:48:06 2007 |
I have what it takes to join your team on the Yellow Boat. I will be a great sailor and get along well with all of the visitors. I will ask my good friend Brad to send me to Hawaii. Goodbye for now.
|
| Joyce Weisinger - Fri Sep 7 11:42:05 2007 |
Get ready NaHokuII we are on our way. We picked up a trip and will be on the beach on the 8th of Sept. We have really missed riding on your roof. The other boats don't have one. That makes you different and special to us. Mahalo for all the past rides and in advance for the one tomorrow. We hope Krash is Capt. We haven't seen him in a few years.
|
| Paul and Shari and Stephanie - Mon Sep 3 15:31:30 2007 |
Best time of our life,can't wait to ride the waves with you this Xmas.Keep the mai tais flowing and the wind beneath your sails.
|
| Jay, Susan and Kyrstn - Sun Sep 2 16:16:43 2007 |
I have been riding the Na Hoku since 1991 and so has my family. John I am very pleased that you are back on the water. It would not be the same with your beautiful catamaran not on the beach. Hope to be there in the spring. Aloha from Abbotsford BC Canada. 604-807-2667
|
| Jamie Nugen end of August - Sat Sep 1 14:40:07 2007 |
The beer was plentiful and very cold!
The female deckhand had the best tan I have ever seen in my life! (loves boats and sunshine and probably JohnJohn)
The crew was NOT arrogant!
Shugo talked, and even smiled!
They let me stand up front the whole time!
Best music!
Best strategy is the complimentary bar, by far!
See you this Christmas!
|
| Harold Ross - Wed Aug 29 15:50:12 2007 |

|
| Mario - Wed Aug 22 15:12:27 2007 |

| Paul & Randy - Mon Aug 20 08:17:55 2007 |
Although the boat was not sailing when we were there on vacation, It was great to see the boat go out of the Harbor on August 11th! So happy to see the familiar red and yellow sails! We look forwrad to riding with you again next year. Way to go John and Carol. Cant wait to ride with you again!
|
| Carol - Sun Aug 19 14:56:36 2007 |
Jess, Sorry the boat was not working when you came here. I posted the date I was given and a couple other posting's but do not see them listed here anymore. The 15th was the date we thought we would be back, and why I said it was not incorrect, at least not at that time. It is our goal to be back as soon as possible, however, we stil have a few delays that we cannot control. It has been disappointing for all of us and again I am sorry we missed you. Hope to sail with you again soon. Mahalo
|
| Jess - TX - Sun Aug 19 11:14:06 2007 |
I don't know, you posted to everyone that June 15th was the day and it wasn't. Then, you didn't even let anyone know it was the wrong date. We came out on vacation on 7/22 expecting to be able to ride and there was no boat. We were very disappointed. I'd call that incorrect.
|
| Carol - Sat Aug 18 14:07:55 2007 |
Aloha friends....the info posted 2 months ago was not incorrect. We hoped to back by then but hit many snags that have again delayed our return and why I haven't posted another date since then. Will let you know when we are ready to sail. Mahalo for checking and hope you will all be sailing with us again soon.
|
| Webmaster - Scott - Sat Aug 18 12:08:27 2007 |
Aloha Donovan,
Sorry to you and everyone else for the incorrect info posted on the return date from over 2 months ago. The only answer right now is hopefully "very soon".
|
| Nan - Sat Aug 18 04:15:43 2007 |
I just ran across your site. I just wanted to let you know that my husband asked me to marry him while we were sailing on the Na Hoku in 1987. We just had our 20th anniversary last month. Lot's of great memories on your boat. If I get back to Honolulu, I will be back! Bless you and Aloha!
|
| Donovan - Wed Aug 15 15:53:55 2007 |
yea scott whats the deal they were talking about june 15th for a return how is it 2 months later you guys arent on the water yet? just wondering will it be done by sept 4-12 area you think?
|
| Suren from CA - Wed Aug 8 16:58:27 2007 |
So is it official, are you guys back in business? If not, when? I sincerely hope I can cruise with you guys again by the 22nd of this month. It was a sad dissapointment when we came in June and the boat was not ready. I'm sure it's been tough, and I hope all the hard work pays off soon!
|
| Kyle - Tue Aug 7 15:04:55 2007 |

| Webmaster - Scott - Fri Jul 27 18:02:31 2007 |
Yes Lej, Brother "Big Wave" Dave has moved to the Big Island. But it's all good, 'cuz it was a move he wanted to make, so personally, I am very happy for him. He didn't move to Mars though & will be around from time to time. He's an awesome guy that everyone loved, and he will be missed on the beach by many, many people.
|
| Lej - Sun Jul 29 17:01:00 2007 |
Did Dave leave Oahu?
|
| Rex - Sat Jul 28 03:02:46 2007 |
Glad to see that we have overcome those problems, now let's get the last little duck wet.

Aloha friends....we enjoyed our first time back to the beach but it was only for a brief moment, took some pic's which I am sending to Scott to post, and poof we were gone. We also have some pic's of our last Hooray for a day of fun in the sun with family and friends before, hopefully, coming back to the beach to work. That last little duck needs to get it's feathers wet and get in line! Thanks for all the messages, they keep us smiling. Aloha and Mahalo, Carol
|
| R & L - Sat Jul 7 15:31:18 2007 |
It's been WAY TOO LONG! We miss you ALL. We'll be hoping to see you in a couple of weeks and if not, in early August. Our best wishes to see you on the beach very soon!!
|
| Rex - Sat Jul 7 01:28:02 2007 |
Aloha Brewster... I was coming out by myself the first week of August, but if that last little duck doesn't cooperate within the next couple of weeks I most likely will cancel and go ahead and go to Sturgis and come back in March. Cold beer at both places and no worries!!! Can't wait to be back on the boat.
|
| Brewster - Thu Jul 5 15:03:08 2007 |
Thanks for the updates Carol. It's been a long time coming, but I am sure well worth the wait. All the best to you and John-John.
Luv & Aloha
|
| Brewster - Thu Jul 5 15:00:57 2007 |
Hey Rex.........It's gonna happen soon. Can't wait. Hope to see you soon!!!!
|
| Rex - Wed Jul 4 00:11:07 2007 |
Aloha everyone,
Have a safe and joyful Fourth of July and let's hope that the last of those ducks gets in line where it belongs and the big yellow boat back on the beach.
|
| Carol - Mon Jul 2 08:45:08 2007 |
Aloha friends.....sorry we missed the 15th for our return to the beach....(sad). We still have one duck to get into the row and thought for sure it would be in line by then. I will update again when we are ready. Mahalo for all the support, we very much appreciate it. Happy sailing....soon soon soon!
|
| Joyce Weisinger - Sun Jul 1 10:51:41 2007 |
I'm going to be on Waikiki tomorrow. Where's the boat? It's way past June 15th. Where's the Big Yellow Boat?!!!!!
|
| Donovan - Sun Jun 17 17:48:34 2007 |
Ive been looking for the past couple days i havent seen the boat yet it was supposed to be back at the beach june 15th? am i just looking at the wrong time or is there another delay?
|
| Joyce Weisinger - Fri Jun 15 07:09:39 2007 |
Great set of pictures of the new mast. I guess I can go back to Hawaii now that the boat will be back in operation. The beach isn't the same without the BIG YELLOW BOAT in the surf. I hope John ordered new sails for the "new" boat. CONGRATS.
|
| Carol - Tue Jun 12 14:52:08 2007 |
Update: The Mast is beautiful! Shiny boat yellow and big as life. I sent Scott some pictures and he will post them soon. Thought you would all like to see them. Aloha, Carol (smiling)

Hey Everyone, I wish I had the oppertunity to ride the Na Hoku II before the death of Jordan. Jordan went to my school and I absolutely love Jordan. My heart goes out to my school and his parents and family. Jordan will always be in my heart and will always be loved. He was an awesome kid and I cant wait to see him again in Heaven!! The Na Hoku II sounds like an awesome boat. I cant wait for my chance to ride it. Hope to be coming out over the Summer. Hope its repaired by then. Other wise, next summer will do!!

It saddens my heart to read about the accident. I have never been aboard the Na Noku II but have sailed many times on Na Hoku in the 80's, when I was younger and still thin, it was always the best part of our vacation. We are doing a nostalgia beach vacation in November and look forward to getting to know the Na Hoku II and its crew as well as we knew the first, I’m betten the days of dollar beers and my Mai Tai's are long gone, but Im sure its still the best bargain on the beach.

I wish the boat wasn't all you can drink price. My wife and I are lucky if we have two beers,and both our kids are too young. Liked it much better with $1.oo Mai tais and $2.00 beers. Loved the boat.

| Leanne Etsler - Wed Feb 28 17:01:46 2007 |
When I was growing up, the NaHoku was my second home every summer. I would spend all day on the boat with John and Crash. It was a blast. When I heard what had happened, I was devastated for everyone involved. I am glad to see things are getting back on track. I was so lucky to be able to grow up in "paradise" and I have so many fond memories of Hawaii and that famous red and yellow catamaran. I also tell people when they go to Hawaii to make sure they go for a sail on the NaHoku. I remember the first day I met John and his brother Gene on the beach and they invited us on board. Gene became a permanent fixture at our house from that day on. I just want to say best of luck to John and the crew. I have some friends who will be going to Hawaii in June and September and I will be sure to send them your way. Take Care and again best of luck. I cant wait to get back to Hawaii and back on the NaHoku.
Aloha, Leanne (in freezing buffalo)

Aloha! We have sailed on "our red and yellow catamaran" (as we refer to the Na Hoku II) 12 times. We tell everyone we know who is visiting Honolulu, that it is a must. Our last wonderful sail with you was in June of 2005 with some of kids/grandkids. We will all be back in June 2008 to see her shiny and new. Thanks for all the special memories....old and new to come! Aloha from PA! (wish we were there NOW!

I was in Hawaii in December and so bummed and concerned for John-john and all the crew when I found out what happened. I love that boat, its my favorite place to be in my favorite place to be :) I will be back in Hawaii in a couple of weeks and I can't wait to get back on the Na Hoku II! See you all soon, much love and Aloha~ Andrea
|
| Steve - Tue Feb 13 16:13:57 2007 |
I was bummed to not see Na Hoku II on the beach when I visited 2/1 to 2/5. I had people with me who had never been to Waikiki so I took them on one of the other cats and for me it just wasn't the same. They had a good time and so did I but I knew what was the best. Glad to hear everything is almost in order and no matter where she is parked on the beach I'll be on the best cat next time.
|
| John Anter - Tue Feb 13 12:52:32 2007 |
Aloha We had a great time on the boat. once we went out on it the first time we were back every day, and it was the last thing we did before we had to head back to Michigan. Mahalo can't wait to get back.
|
| Mark - Canada - Tue Feb 13 08:19:33 2007 |
The boat has brought pleasure to countless people from all over the world. All of you guys that have put in so much time getting the Na Hoku II back into shape deserve our gratitude. We will be there in a couple of weeks and have had our fingers crossed that we will be able to enjoy the boat and the crew again this year.
Mahalo (eh?)

| Scott - Webmaster - Sat Feb 10 10:13:50 2007 |
Aloha Rex & Bruce,
Yeah, Dave, Kawika & myself have been rigorously testing the coolers each day after working on the boat. We've cycled numerous cases of beer through them the past 3 weeks, also testing the icemaker in the process, but, in the interest of quality control, we feel more testing & use is required. It's not easy work, and can be time consuming, not to mention the effort of having to load it with ice & beer every day. It's a sacrifice though that must be made. We pray for strength.

| Debbie in NorCal - Sat Feb 10 09:41:27 2007 |
Woooohhooo I wish I could have been on the beach at the Outrigger listening to the Conch and cheering you all on!!!!! Da Big Yellow Boat is back...congrats to you all and may the winds be blowing in the right direction and may the icechest never be empty!! Thanks Scott for all of the great updates. We all needed to hear that everything is on the upswing!! Na Hoku II is and always will be the boat of Waikiki!! Cant wait to be back!!!
|
| Rex/Ohio - Fri Feb 9 10:46:42 2007 |
That's right Bruce, the rebirth of the Big Yellow Boat is not complete until the coolers have been stocked and emptied a couple of times. Of course Scott has probably got that under control.

Mahalo for keeping us up to date on the goings-on of drydock. We missed the boat terribly when we were there for the holidays, and were stunned to hear about the tragedy. We pray for all that were on the boat that day, and for a speedy return to what you do best, showing people a great time in Hawaii! Aloha.

| Bill & Marylin, Houston TX - Wed Jan 3 07:27:44 2007 |
Dear John;
We want you to know John, that in the three decades that we have been coming to Waikiki, you and the Na Hoku have made our visits more meaningful and made them more pleasurable. We, our children and our grandchildren, treasure the memories of sailing off Waikiki on the Na Hoku catamaran. The Na Hoku and its crew, especially its captain John, have become icons on Waikiki beach to our family, the families of our friends and to countless other visitors. You have always blessed everyone with abundant Aloha. Your knowledge of Honolulu, the islands, the sea and the sunsets has always made our visits special as we discussed these aspects of Hawaii in our many conversations on the beach. We pray that you, your crew and the Na Hoku will soon return to Waikiki beach.
Bill and Marilyn Smith

Thanks for the update. I went to the beach on the 20th- no boat. I went on the 21st, again -no boat. I had no idea that there had been a tragedy. I finally asked a fellow crew member about the NaHoku and he filled me in. I was just sick. I feel so bad for everyone involved, especially for the parents of young Jordon. My prayers and thoughts are with all of you. Hang in there. We'll see you on the beach next month. Thanks for all the great rides. Sincerely, The Continental Airline Crews

Sadness for the family of Jordan and their loss...May you find peace sometime in the near future. I can't imagine the feeling of pain you must be going through but hope the wishes of all of the NaHuko II friends and family will let you know how much you are in our hearts and thoughts. To John John, Nabuko, Mike, Dave, Shugo and Nicholas, your Aloha spirit will guide you through all of this horrific time and you will land back on your feet calling us all back with the conch shell of the NaHuko II once again!! I have never seen any alcohol used by the crew and they have always exibited the utmost care and concern for all of the friends and family that has had the pleasure to board the best Cat on Waikiki.... Once again please accept my sincere wishes for peace for both Jordans family and the crew of the NaHuko II!!! Until we are together again, Aloha!

| CALGARY Girl - Was on the boat on Dec.1st - Wed Dec 6 16:41:54 2006 |
I just wanted to make a note that it was a very terrifying freak accident. It was nobody's fault. Everybody was in complete shock and we did what we could. I feel first and foremost sympathetic to the Parents/Family of Jordan. The crew did what they could. The sounds of the mother's cries and the looks in everybody's eyes that day (especially the crews) are very haunting. I send everybody that was a witness to this horrific day strength.
|
| Bruce & Barb - Wed Dec 6 04:41:39 2006 |
Our thoughts and prayers are with all involved in this unforseen tragedy. Knowing the crews love for children and concern for safety, this must be very devastating. May God and the Aloha spirit get you through this. Stay strong and take care.

| Laine - Tue Dec 5 17:55:33 2006 |
The hearts of hundreds of people scattered far and wide,are hurting ~ first of all for the family who lost their son, and then for the NaHoku "family". They are all being kept in the thoughts and prayers of those many hundreds of hurting hearts.............
|
| Steve - Tue Dec 5 15:27:48 2006 |
since my first post on Dec.2nd i've felt such a profound sense of sadness and spirituality related to this tragedy.So many snippets of my life over a long span of going to Hawaii with the Na hoku II in many of my memories. My young son at 3,lost loves,meeting many good people, the turtles,the only breaching whale that I have ever seen in the open ocean. I was at one time that young person enjoying the rush of big waves and galing wind while on board.Things happen in life and it's a beautiful journey that we should all live to it's fullest.

| Paul & Michelle Port Ludlow WA - Mon Dec 4 21:14:58 2006 |
Our hearts go out to the family and capt. and crew. Our prayers are with you all. We met each other aboard this wonderful boat in 1998 and married the following year. This boat has been very special to us in so many ways. We look forward to seeing you all back on your feet soon. To the Mother and Father of Jordan, please know that your lives will be a testimony and though nothing can replace your loss, our lives are touched as well as the lives of others. God Bless you and keep you and confort you at this very sad time.

| Bonnie and Dennis, Calgary, Canada - Mon Dec 4 15:40:21 2006 |
To Captain John and All Members of the Crew,
Half a world away...we are shocked and saddened by the tragic events of Friday, which resulted in the sudden death of one of your passengers.Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult and trying time. We know that the coming days and weeks will be very difficult for you...as it will for the family members of the young boy who was lost. May your Aloha Spirit fortify you and may you always remember all of the care, hospitality and fun you shared with visitors who came to sail with you over and over again. On our numerous rides in the "yellow school bus"...we always felt safe in your capable hands, high above the waves. We have you in our hearts and hope that the search for information about this unfortunate event reveals truth and allows for a path to recovery for all.
We will continue to hold fond memories of our times on the Na Hoku II and will continue to visit your website often. We hope that the support of loved ones and friends helps you cope with the many impacts of this accident.
Warm Regards........Bonnie and Dennis, Calgary, Canada

| Heidi from Cali - Mon Dec 4 15:18:52 2006 |
I and my family and friends have all sailed with the Na Hoku II back to 1993 - many times. I have only the BEST memories of our times aboard. I too have the UTMOST confidence in the craft and the crew and know this was a totally unforseen accident. I knew the family as they were long time patients in the dental office I manage. My heart goes out to the family, the crew and all who are close to the accident. I will look forward to another time and place when I can enjoy more great times aboard.

My wife and I can only remember the good times aboard the Nahoku II , we can only try to imagine the sorrow and grief the families involved and the crew must be dealing with. We have the utmost respect and confidence in the crew and captain. Until we sail again, Aloha , and you are in our hearts

| Hayley - Sun Dec 3 17:37:45 2006 |
My thoughts and prayers are with everyone right now. I love the whole crew from the bottom of my heart.. you guys are like my second family. I hopefully I will see everyone in a few days.

| Lisa - Sun Dec 3 15:24:38 2006 |
Prayers to the families of all those affected by this tragedy. Our hearts and thoughts are with you. To John John and the crew that day, may God hold you in the palm of his hand through the difficult days ahead. This was a tragic accident. As someone who has sailed with you through some pretty rough seas, there is no one else I would trust so completely with my safety and that of my family. We will be back to Oahu for our anniversary and expect to travel with you again. Fair winds and following seas. Much love from the mainland.

In response to Hazel ~ I've been riding John-John's boats
over 25 years, and I've never seen a crew member have a drink while sailing. It sounds like just an unfortunate accident, and our thoughts go out to the family and crew!!!
|
| Hazel - Sun Dec 3 08:37:29 2006 |
Well it's a tragedy what has happened. Our prayers go out to the family of the poor child who lost his life. I only hope that this was some unforseen accident and that alcohol did not play a part.

| Hulagirl - Sun Dec 3 08:33:53 2006 |
Fist I would like to say that "my sympathy goes to the family that was affected by this awful accident".
And secondly to John John and those who were working on this day. "you are in our prayers" We have sailed the Na Hoku 1 and in recent years the Na Hoku 2 since and always have and will continue to sail with you! Be strong and keep the faith. Aloha!!

DearCaptain & Crew,
You are in my heart & prayers. Think good thoughts, and know that many a mainlander hold the spirit of the Na Hoku II in their hearts and memories. We've sailed many times, and will be back again.
Aloha.
Deb, Tab, Gus, & Keller

As a long time traveler to Waikiki I want the crew to know that my thoughts and prayers are with them.The Na Hoku II and the original Na Hoku were always part of my trips from 17 years old to being a middle age beach troll.I always had a great time and felt welcome and safe .Hope that you are back on your feet soon because I'll be there in Feb. and I want to be on that Cat.

Aloha everyone! I sure am missing Hawaii right now. We've jumped right into winter in Minnesota. High's in the 30's, lows in the teens. We've even had snow a few times. Can't wait to be back at the beach!

I have heard so many positive things about the sunset cruise that I think we will all try and come aboard in November! Hopefully the skipper will let me take the big wheel once we get going. Aloha!!

| Brewster - Thu Oct 26 11:16:41 2006 |
For every 12 people that send in $25 that gives us one month of the live cam.....If we have enough respond (144 people) that gives us a years of the live cam. Don't you think we have a 144 fans in "Da Nahoku Club"
Come on guys.............RESPOND
Mahalo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
| Webmaster - Scott - Thu Oct 26 08:54:33 2006 |
Aloha Brewster, and mahalo for da kine kokua, but unless they get realistic about the webcam fees ($25 a month I could swing....$300 a month, no chance) I would never expect anyone else to shoulder that burden. It was great while we had it, but, things change. One never knows what might happen down the road though. Mahalo Everyone!

| Anonymous - Thu Oct 26 04:27:42 2006 |
Webmaster says web cam is $300.00 a month----so is the $25.00 a month also?????
|
| Brewster - Wed Oct 25 13:14:54 2006 |
Hey Listen up.....We all enjoy this site and there is plenty of us to do this. If everyone would agree to send Scott a check for $25 to cover the cost of the other cam we are all so use to watching, we could all feel at home again. He does a great job and doesn't ask any body for anything. If you are in agreement with this, leave a msg. on the web site. With enough responses I am sure Scott will post an address where we can all send our Checks.
Mahalo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Mike Hope - Wed Oct 25 07:27:31 2006 |
Eh, John-John. Sending my good sister Sherrill out to say "Aloha", tomorrow. Show her a good time e malama pono.

Aloha Everyone!! Well, we now have a new Waikiki Beach live webcam stream. It's not what we had before (they want $300 a month for that now...NO can!), but the new one is free & is better than nothing. Also, I lost a lot of pix data due to an internal hard drive issue recently. So the next album going up will be pix from the past 2-3 weeks only....sorry!

| Webmaster - Scott - Mon Oct 16 09:31:20 2006 |
Hi Everyone,
Yeah, we had a nasty one yesterday morning....I've never felt a 30 story concrete & steel bldg rock & roll like mine (& everyone else's around here) did...one hell of a way to wake up for sure. The whole state lost power & water for about 15 hours, cell service was almost non-existant due to the heavy use by people on all 8 islands here plus the cell companies were on backup power as well, and, it was rainy & crappy the whole day as well, so all in all, a really FUN way to spend a Sunday!!
