Hello Cindy,

It sounds excellent. We were kicking around the idea of a honeymoon out that way. I haven't been west of Maui and Laura leapfrogged from there to New Zealand in the past. So neither one of us know much about that part of Oceania. They are low islands? It looks like there is excellent water visibility. The wind looks great too. I imagine there are sailboats/captains for charter to head around the islands?

It sounds like you have a unique experience in store for the lucky women on your trip! It reminds me of the HiHo interisland windsurfing race in the BVI only nicer, more exotic and of course for kiters.

Thanks,
Rick
