Kanaha Windsurfing Access
There's a potential conflict that's starting to brew over Kanaha access that could affect anybody wanting to windsurf Kanaha.
Apparently the Kahalui harbormaster wants to adhere to a supposed 1988 law that apparently designates a pretty big portion of Kanaha beach park as a swimming area. I've heard 3rd hand that he has ropes and bouys to start roping off areas. Not sure where the areas would be, but they're supposedly much bigger than the current little swimming area and I believe would include Uppers as well as Lowers.
Details are still pretty sketchy since everything I've heard about this is third or fourth hand, though from reliable sources. Should know more this week as there may be some confrontations between windsurfing representatives and the harbormaster.

I can't believe they want to do that. Nobody swims in that area now. If they rope off more areas I won't come back next year.

I can't believe it either, but apparently the harbormaster believes that the windsurfers are what's keeping the locals from using it as a swimming beach. Buncha BS in my opinion. Go there on no wind day and there's still hardly anyone swimming there.
