Thanks to Brian for the donation.
Couldn't find a photo of the Molokai to Oahu race, so I grabbed this frame of Andrew Gibbons from a reel on the M2O account on Instagram. As far as I know, everybody who is doing foiling downinders in Maui was watching the blue dots slowly move on the screen and I can't believe how exciting it was. Congrats to James Casey for winning the SUP foil division and to all finishers. Results here.
5am Surfline significant buoy readings and discussion.
South shore
Barbers
- 1.2ft, 13s, S 180º
- 0.7ft, 20s, SSW 205º
Lanai
- 1.3ft, 14s, S 185º
- 0.8ft, 20s, SW 220º
Both buoys show a little more than a foot of 13-14s southerly energy and a little less than a foot of 20s SSW energy. Below are the maps of July 24 through 27 that show the fetch that generated the latter. Nothing to be particularly excited about again, but at least something. 3 feet high tide at 3pm.
Check the Lahaina webcam if interested, for size, conditions and consistency.
North shore
Mokapu
- 3.6ft, 7s, E 80º
Only easterly windswell on the north shore also today. Home guess for Hookipa is flat to knee high and windy.
Fetches map (circles legend: red: direct aim, blue: angular spreading, black: blocked, yellow: possibly over the ice sheet) from Windy.
North Pacific (about 4 days travel time from the NW corner of the North Pacific):

Morning sky.
