MTM: Ala Wai Yacht Harbor

Aloha, Mateys!





Let's Dance!
Kliban Cats (c)



time to relax. . .




Slide Show!



Aloha!
Welcome to my town: The Ala Wai Small Boat Harbor here in Waikiki.



The slide show are pictures I took of our recent inspection-cruise. My house eased out of it's slip, left the harbor, did a sweet pirouette, and returned safely.




As long as we abide by harbor rules and maintain our floating real estate, we can remain here at the border between land and sea. . . at the very edge of Waikiki!





A L O H A! Cloudia

For us new people, have you done a post before about how you came to be living on a boat in Hawaii? Is there some reference I can look back on to get up to speed?

Seems like the perfect existence.

It is a fine thing to know that you have a berth and a finer thing to know it will await your return should you decide to go for an Island sail about. May the seas always be kind.

I'd love to know the story, too!

Sweet ride, and that water looks lovely and calm.

Do you ever have to take your boat to storm shelters or do you not get strong enough storms in Hawaii?

Terrific pics... I've always wanted to live on a houseboat ever since reading John D. MacDonald's Travis McGeee series.

Why do they call it a "slip" ?
