Outrigger canoe racing in Hawaii is like ice hockey to Canada or football to the mainland U.S. The cultural and historical roots run deep. Outrigger believes in Ohana (family) and embracing everyone through the sport. 

Regattas, or sprints, are a big part of the racing season in Hawaii and the winning teams from each island come together for the state championships. It is not only fun and family but competition among the clubs. What a great way to involve the family in a season of racing and camaraderie.
