Even though the marina was very nice it was just too far away from anything, so we decided to move, this wasn’t as easy as you might think, Sean was on the radio and e-mailing for ages until we found a berth, folk here like to look after boats that are berthed here permanently but not so much to people passing through, thats the feeling we got. we finally got a berth in town, it was a bit small, but we squeezed in.
Cruising up the coast to Honolulu.

Approaching the new marina and down town Honolulu.

If anyone is a fan of the new Hawaii Five-0, they do a lot of the filming around this marina, not while we were here, but I could recognise a few land marks.
This hotel appears a lot in the new series, here’s a shot with my iPhone, came out pretty nice i think.

Below is the hotel that both Jack Lord and Alex O’Loughlin appear on the top balcony during the opening sequence. This shot taken from the stern of Kapowai.

You have to try the Macadamia Nut pancakes with coconut syrup. I had it 30 + years ago in Honolulu when I was on my honeymoon. I still think about them!
