Nine ocean and water sports legends of Hawaii are in the inaugural class of inductees, including three posthumous honorees:

• Eddie Aikau – Surfing, Ocean Safety Lifeguard
• Wally Froiseth – Surfing, Canoe Paddling
• Fred Hemmings – Surfing
• Duke Kahanamoku – Surfing, Swimming, Canoe Paddling
• Buffalo Keaulana – Surfing, Ocean Safety Lifeguard
• Rabbit Kekai – Surfing, Canoe Paddling
• Keo Nakama – Swimming
• Nappy Napolean – Canoe Paddling
• Rell Sunn – Surfing, Paddling, First Female Lifeguard

“We’re excited about launching the Hawaii Waterman Hall of Fame to honor Hawaii’s legendary kane and wahine o ke kai,” said Tim Guard, ODKF president. “We’re also proud to announce that our organization’s inspiration, Duke Kahanamoku, will be among the first inductees into the hall of fame. Mahalo to Primo for partnering with ODKF to bring this worthy idea to fruition.”

“We’re thrilled to be a part of this effort to celebrate the legendary men and women who have paved the way for Hawaii’s ocean-sports athletes,” said Primo Beer ambassador Keoni Watson. “One of our company goals is to help preserve and perpetuate Hawaiian culture and environment, so we’re very pleased to partner with ODKF.”

The nine honorees will be the first inductees into the Hawaii Waterman Hall of Fame, which will be housed at The Grand Waikikian™ resort near the beautiful Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon. This display will enshrine all inductees and serve as a Who’s Who of the Hawaii waterman community for both residents and visitors. “Mahalo to Hilton for providing this display area to showcase Hawaii’s waterman tradition. This location fits perfectly given this area is where the Kahanamoku ohana lived and raised their family,” Guard said.

“The creation of a waterman hall of fame is long overdue,” said Ralph Goto, ODKF board member, a member of the committee that selected the nine inductees, and administrator of the Ocean Safety and Lifeguard Services Division for the City and County of Honolulu. “Hawaii has a rich history of producing some of the world’s best athletes in water sports, and that tradition continues on today. We’re excited about paying tribute to the deserving watermen and waterwomen of Hawaii with this inaugural class of nine honorees, all of who have been at the forefront in helping to establish the Hawaiian Islands as the center of the water-sports universe.”


Selection criteria used to determine the inaugural honorees included:

• Keiki o ka aina/Keiki o ke kai
• Sustained outstanding contribution to the sport
• International, national, and local accomplishment and recognition

“The inaugural class of inductees is very special,” Guard said. “They are all accomplished athletes in several areas, not just a single discipline. They also set an excellent standard for future inductees.”

Planting of Tahiti lime or Bearss lime

We used a Birthday gift card from the Palyo's to buy this tree at Home Depot. Dug out a hole and filled with a full bag,  2 cubic feet of potting soil. Flooded hole and now we wait a few years for limes.

Persian Lime (Citrus x latifolia), also known asTahiti lime or Bearss lime is a kind of citrus fruit. It is the primary citrus fruit grown commercially in the U.S. It is sold simply as a "lime". The fruit is about 6 cm in diameter. Very often, it has slightly nippled ends. It is usually sold quite green, although it yellows as it reaches full ripeness. It is larger, thicker-skinned, and less aromatic than the key lime. The key lime is grown more often worldwide. The Persian lime is bigger than the key lime, and has less seeds. The plant is also hardier, and has no thorns on the bushes. The fruit also has a longershelf life.


Persian limes are less acidic than key limes and don't have the bitterness that lends to the key lime's unique flavour. Persian limes are sold primarily in six sizes, known as 110's, 150's, 175's, 200's, 230's and 250's. They are grown primarily in Florida in the U.S. The Persian lime became more important when key lime orchards were wiped out by a hurricane in 1926. Persian lime orchards themselves were devastated by Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Large numbers of Persian limes are grown, processed and exported every year primarily from Martínez de la Torre, VeracruzMexico, to the AmericanEuropean and Asianmarkets. U.S. Persian lime imports from Mexico are handled mostly throughMcAllenTexas.
