WEBVTT

00:00.171 --> 00:01.598
- We're very excited to be back.

00:01.598 --> 00:03.799
It's been a long five months for most of us

00:03.799 --> 00:07.166
in terms of the training, as well as work-ups

00:07.166 --> 00:08.848
to do with delivery of the cutter.

00:08.848 --> 00:11.749
And it was great to see all of our families

00:11.749 --> 00:12.816
waiting on the pier for us,

00:12.816 --> 00:16.617
as well as all the other guests and just friends.

00:16.617 --> 00:18.958
As well as the blessing, the traditional Hawaiian blessing

00:18.958 --> 00:20.222
welcomed us to the island.

00:20.222 --> 00:21.664
It was a very moving and touching ceremony

00:21.664 --> 00:23.908
and we greatly appreciate it.

00:23.908 --> 00:26.136
And, it's another great thing just to bring in assets

00:26.136 --> 00:29.167
such as this to this new Homeport in Hawaii.

00:29.167 --> 00:32.975
We're designed to replace 110 foot patrol boats.

00:32.975 --> 00:35.428
Oh, we're comparing them is, it's apples to oranges.

00:35.428 --> 00:36.777
These are so much more capable,

00:36.777 --> 00:39.353
and bring so much more to the people of Hawaii.

00:39.353 --> 00:43.603
And, we look forward to serving them in the future.
