The Manu Ele`ele was designed and built on Molokai by the renowned catamaran designer Kirk Clark at Hawaiian Catamaran.  The vessel is uniquely designed for Hawaiian waters and is Coast Guard documented and approved, overseen by the Maritime Consortium with a certificate of compliance ensuring a drug-free captain and crew and each are certified in Heartsaver® First Aid and Adult/Child CPR.  Tours consist of a small, maximum group of six, allowing for an intimate ocean tour experience for seasonal whale watching, Snuba and snorkeling, sunset cultural cruises, sunset weddings, half day fishing, night fishing, torch Lantern fishing and Hawaiian style reef spearfishing.

“At the end of the day, we are here to provide a service to visitors to just come up and talk story with us as a resource for any questions they may have while they are here and at the same time educating them about the island and what to do and where to go to enjoy the tours and rental items we provide,” said store host Dave Mireles.
