Our California group airfare is $570 including tax. Hawaiian Air has agreed to freight our boards on these flights for a nominal charge of $50 roundtrip. Please let Cathie know how many boards you are shipping and add $50 per board to your check.

There is no insurance on these boards. You are shipping at your own risk. DO NOT USE BUBBLE WRAP WITHOUT PROTECTING BOARD FROM SUNLIGHT!

Make checks payable to Southern California Paddleboard Club.

Booking Seats

For the group package, there are 100 seats available between the three trips. The seats are available on a first come, first served basis. After the 100 seats are gone, the per seat price will increase slightly. If you’d like to book space on one of these trips, please email Cathie English at HennesseysRaces@aol.com or call 310-316-2892. No seats will be booked without a deposit so be prepared to send a non-refundable check for $100 made out to the Southern California Paddleboard Club as soon as you book seats with Cathie, with the remaining balance due by June 1, 2005. If you need payment arrangements, please talk to Cathie.

Renting Wheels

If you want wheels while you’re on the island, you’ll need to make your own rental car reservations. You can call Hertz at 1-800-654-2210 or Avis at 1-800-331-1212.

Hawaiian Freight Info

Hawaiian Air will be shipping all of the Californians’ boards this year. There will be a $50 round trip handling fee. This includes paddleboards or surfboard bags. You will add this to your check when you pay for your airfare. It is mandatory if you are shipping a board with Hawaiian Air, you MUST be on Hawaiian Air’s Flight Manifest, according to new FAA rules for shipping personal items (as in paddleboards). Hawaiian Air is a Co-title sponsor and they are doing us a huge favor by shipping our boards. Even at 50 bucks, it’s a bargain! They have made things more convenient for dropping off boards this year. Here are the dates and times that boards can be dropped off.

Don’t forget to pack your board properly – NO bubble wrap!!!
