At 0650 the Rabbit Island cast consisted of Sadie & Pup (RB12) doing a morning water session at the left end, and Duke (RA12) with the U/F at the right end of the beach. Kainoa would haul out to Right Middle Cliff at 0707. Today was the first time I saw him actually lying on his wound side. I think of that as a good sign.

Gayle called at 1050 with the report of Kaiwi (RK96) at her usual China Walls hangout. Unfortunately, when I got there at 1228 she was no longer there.

Team Billand had a busy day as usual. At 0643 they reported Buster (RV08) and R018 together fronting #1708, White Plains.

At 0705 M&M hauled out to join the boys but all would wind up battling in the water. Duke would haul out to #1707 by himself at 0750, while R018 & M&M played with the buoy until hauling out together fronting the Snack Shack at 0816.

RIP (RR70) would haul out to join them at 0848. There was naturally some battling involved. R018 was gone at 1456, and RIP departed at 1658.

At 1018 Team Billand found Pohaku (RO28) at Puka Pants Beach, Nanakuli.

At 1045 they reported Kekoa (RK72) in the company of T21M at the Reef Runway.

At 1228 Ocean Safety called with a report of an animal at Magic Island. At 1615 Dana advised that it was Rocky (RH58). Awaiting photo confirmation.

At 1247 the Billands reported Kolohe (RW22) at Maili Pt.

At 1302 they found Nihoa (R912) at Guard Rails Beach, Maili.

My favority Molokaian, Diane Pike checked in at 1656 with the report of Mojo (RI17) over there. My 2^nd born spends more time there than he does at his Rabbit Island home. Her ID of Mojo was by his little known N22 bleach, which is very difficult to see on his left side.

Diane Gabriel sent shots from her day at Turtle Bay. She found La’akea (RK82) at Right Spot’s Spot, and Kaikaina (RL54) & Meli (RF20) together at Elbow Beach, TB.
