Paddling The Channel Of Bones
A couple of years ago, I had a vision of somehow getting out on the Ka'iwi Channel - the body of water separating the Hawaiian islands of Oahu and Molokai - in either a rowboat or to maybe swim it. Then, I discovered the 'Molokai2Oahu Paddleboard World Championship Race' causing me to arrest our current summer plans and to try to get into the race.

Introduction
In this episode’s accompanying video and podcast, my son, Matthew, and wife, Dr. Caple, recall this past summer’s adventure participating in the Molokai2Oahu Paddleboard World Championship Race, as complete newcomers to the sport.
If you enjoy a bit of schadenfreude, you might enjoy watching (or listening) to this episode.
Please enjoy!
