WAIKIKI OFFSHORE SERIES

The Waikiki Yacht Club King Kamehameha Perpetual Trophy was created in June 2005 to promote the Waikiki Offshore Series. This regatta is the successor to the Pam Am Clipper Cup - Kenwood Cup Regattas that ran in even years in Hawaii from 1978 to 2000.

The Trophy is an incredible hand carved koa wood replica of the Hawaii Sailing Canoe Hokule’a. It was commissioned by member Philippe Kahn to entice out of town and local boats to compete in the regatta.

The deed of gift awards this trophy to the overall winner of the Waikiki Offshore Series that includes the inshore and offshore components. It is to be housed at the Waikiki Yacht Club at all times.

Hand carved by the highly talented artist Kylie Chun at an expense of $10,000 this exact replica sits in the Waikiki Yacht Clubs entry trophy case alongside her sister trophy that is dedicated to the winning Transpac boat in the 50 to 60 foot range.

In 2009 the FujiSankei Business i company became the name sponsor of the event and added their logo to the trophy.
