Hawaii Introductions

HI, I'm Paul, a deaf middle school science teacher in Honolulu.
2005 white/black Yamaha FX-HO with HSA rescue sled
Pretty new to all of this, but expect to be logging in hundreds of hours every year from now and on. When I find something new that I like, I grab it by the horns and ride it for all it's worth.

Planning to use the FXHO:
50% blue-water fishing/spearfishing at FADS
30% deep wreck/drop-off spearfishing
10% inter-island traveling/exploring
10% big-wave tow surfing

I'll try to remember to have a pic taken tomorrow so you guys know who to watch out for.

Who are the rest of you guys and what do you use your PWCs for?

-Paul
