Wayne Bramlett, Ann Jordan, Joe Przyuski, and Richard Sikkel all gathered at Killi beach with one thing in mind. Circumnavigate the island of Saipan non stop in a small 6 person outrigger canoe! No small feat since that entails traveling 38 plus miles in sea conditions that might make experienced fisherman in motorized boats think twice about venturing on the same course.
Things are pretty calm at Killi Beach 5:54 AM

We are so lucky to be able to do this out here in Saipan! After work, sometimes we drive down to killi beach to go paddling! Watching the sunset while we are paddling is one of my favorite things to do here in Saipan. I love it out here!
Nice work Mike. We're looking forward to seeing the rest of the pictures.
