The last few weekends have been a blast, sometimes even a place like Kite Beach on Maui can get boring. The waves kind of die down and its just another windy beach. So DeeDee and a few friends of ours headed out on a badass 55' Power Cat. Its a Charter boat that takes you out to some of the closer islands here off Maui. Our buddy Trey works on the Four Winds II and boy did he and the rest of the crew show us a good time. I'm not really to into the whole tourist thing but that was not that vibe at all. They feed you hamburgers, Hotdogs, Chicken and all the beers you can drink all included in the the price of the trip. We were all so stoked on the trip I can't wait to do it again. I would recommend it to anyone its so different beneath the surface.


They have a morning trip and an afternoon trip, we hit up the afternoon one. You meet up at the Maalaea Harbor which we learned is the second windiest harbor in the world!!! Usually its super windy all day, but today we scored and it was one of those rare days where the wind never came up.

Depending on the weather conditions these guys pick the right spot for the right day.


Beautiful boat and awesome friendly crew

Our Buddy Tray rents out these underwater cameras that actually work great, before you leave the boat, he puts all the pictures you took on a CD for you to take home.

My DeeDee loving the boat ride

Her dad came out to Maui for a visit and he's never been snorkeling before, he loved out out at Molokini. I'm sure he loved the open bar too.

All you can eat food, 3 miles offshore

The crew puts out a few lines to troll on the boat ride out to the Molokini, No we didn't hook up but I'm sure every once in a while they do....?

Molokini is a partially sunken volcanic crater about 3 miles off Maui

Trey Akin takes amazing pictures underwater

This guy looks more dangerous than the shark

Baby white tip reef shark

Crazy colors down there

Our buddy Jose took a day off Kitesurfing and came out with us

Not to many people know, but where there are turtles there is sharks...

Thanks again Trey for all the killer pics, we learned so much and had a great time.

The owner asked us what they could do to make it a better trip and honestly I couldn't think of a thing other that if we hooked up a his on the way out!!! Thanks again Four Winds II captain and crew we will defiantly be see you guys again.
