4/6/2015 DB's Dailies: Kainoa,RM38,Kaiwi&Kea@RI, Nihoa@Nanakai Bch, RIP&Kekoa@Maili Point

Once again, Rabbit Island was the only game out in the SE quadrant. At 0648 I found Kainoa (RN04) snoozoin’ at the log, 40 ft left of 1BS. He would later move down to cool of to the left end of the beach.

Also at 0648 I found RM38 behind Seal Rock Inlet. He would move down and out of my line of sight and presumably departed at 1011.

At 1052 what would prove to be Kaiwi (RK96) and Kea (RN46) hauled out together to join Kainoa. I was happily surprised to see little Kea being the initiator of the aggressive play. He and Kea would enter the water at 1117, and I found them hauling out behind the water front rocks to the right side of Seal Rock Inlet. They unfortunately remained partially visible behind the rocks the rest of the day.

At 0939 Team Billand found Nihoa (R912) at Nanakai Beach, Maili. She was gone on the 1430 check.

At 1100 they reported RIP (RR70) at Maili Point.

At 1359 they reported the arrival of Kekoa (RK72) to join RIP at Maili Point.
