00:00.440 --> 00:01.440
Yeah ,

00:14.840 --> 00:17.860
let's go , go

00:17.860 --> 00:21.840
on . I love these waters right

00:21.840 --> 00:24.570
here looking at the mountains and being

00:24.570 --> 00:26.770
on the Marine Corps base , this water

00:26.770 --> 00:30.290
right here is the most fair course in

00:30.450 --> 00:32.920
Oahu And I would venture to say

00:32.930 --> 00:36.760
possibly all of Hawaii . It's awesome

00:36.760 --> 00:38.760
to be racing at Marine Corps base .

00:38.760 --> 00:41.430
Hawaii today . It's a once a year thing

00:41.430 --> 00:44.110
that we get to do . We appreciate that

00:44.110 --> 00:46.332
M . C . B . H . Has invited us on again

00:46.420 --> 00:49.610
to be allowed to interact with the base

00:49.690 --> 00:52.060
is a good thing and kind of gives us

00:52.060 --> 00:54.116
appreciation for each other . We are

00:54.116 --> 00:56.600
very honored and pleased to have the

00:56.610 --> 00:59.590
regard on base this year . It was very ,

00:59.590 --> 01:01.700
extremely exciting for a lot of

01:01.700 --> 01:04.370
military members to understand what the

01:04.380 --> 01:06.602
civilian community is doing outside the

01:06.602 --> 01:10.080
gate . It's actually even more unique

01:10.090 --> 01:12.201
for myself . I was born and raised in

01:12.201 --> 01:15.790
Kyla . I paddle in hawaii kai . I work

01:15.800 --> 01:18.970
on wheeler and Hickam air force guy and

01:18.980 --> 01:21.020
that connection between the old

01:21.020 --> 01:24.810
Hawaiian uh sport of canoe racing and

01:24.810 --> 01:27.790
the military is kind of a cool thing to

01:27.800 --> 01:31.020
be in that water with these canoes that

01:31.020 --> 01:33.700
are priceless with The families in

01:33.700 --> 01:36.990
ohana of all of these 18 clubs and all

01:36.990 --> 01:39.212
of the work that the base and the clubs

01:39.212 --> 01:41.323

01:41.323 --> 01:43.212
