aloha all,
how'zit shane, this is brad, eddie's former boss! hope you and your dad are well. from the posts i've read, sounds like shane is doing his best to find solutions to all of the questions and concerns being brought up. i've been fishing with shane's father, and if shane knows half as much about navigating the harbor on a huge swell-filled day, maneuvering through the swimmers and surfers to get to the boat ramp, he'll do just fine. i would recommend that anyone who hasn't experience the lava from the ocean take this tour. it is THE greatest experience i have ever had in hawai'i, without question. i think it is important for tourists to see why we all love the aina so, and there is no greater way to witness this, than from the sea. i wish you much luck shane, and continue taking the high road in your discussions and comments with the general public. eco-tourism is the way to go in hawai'i, and although it is not always "perfect," and you'll never please everyone, i do believe that seeing the lava and the island from the ocean is a powerful thing. everyone should witness this as i feel their respect for the aina could only grow....
