  Ka'iwi Channel Swim Race

  Feb 2013 - now

  Co-Founder and Director

  http://kaiwichannelswimrace.blogspot.com/The Ka'iwi Channel Swim is a 28 mile, open water, island to island team swim race between the Hawaiian islands of Molokai and Oahu. This race will be held on Saturday August 24th, 2013. THIS IS THE MOST INSANE OPEN WATER SWIM EVENT ON THE PLANET.DescriptionThe Ka'iwi Channel Swim is a 28 mile, open water, island to island team swim race between the Hawaiian islands of Molokai and Oahu.The start to finish approximate distance:28 miles24.5 Nautical Miles45.25 KilometersThe Ka'iwi Channel Swim Race is the most dangerous long distance swim on the planet. This race is like no other. This is ultimate proving ground. Increased dangers of this event exist beyond typical ocean swim events including rapidly changing weather conditions, and absolute remoteness where assistance or rescue is NOT guaranteed and should not be depended on. Logistics are complex. Its best to think this is part race and part expedition.The race is scheduled to begin at Kaluako'i on the western side of Moloka'i and end at Sandy Beach Park on East Oahu on the other side of the notorious 28 mile Ka'iwi Channel.We don't recommend this swim to anyone. BUT, if you understand the risks and still want to compete, I think we're all going to put meaning back in the term "epic."Ka'iwi Channel is rightfully considered one of the most dangerous channels in the world and the ultimate decision to compete in this event should be heavily and carefully considered.
