Pride of Aloha and SS Independence

[bobnsandi]

The Pride of Aloha departed Maui shortly before sunset this evening. As she sailed out of the harbor, the sun broke through the clouds creating a partial rainbow. We were able to capture the Pride as she sailed "into" the rainbow. what is remarkable, is that in October 2001, when the SS Independence steamed from Maui for the last time, she too sailed into a rainbow. An ending, and then a beginning?

Wonderful pictures of the Pride! Thank you for sharing. I'm so glad to see more options for Hawaiian cruising. It was for too long an underserved market.
