They say in their .com site:
It's a destination designed to ensure that you experience the best of Hawaii's ocean activities and shopping! It's where the world's 'top surfers' shop.

Since it's inception in 1965, we have been located in a rustic 2-story wooden building, built in 1921.

We specialize in Surfing, Hawaii Scuba Diving, Bodyboarding & Snorkeling (tours, lessons, sales & rentals). We offer a wide variety of beachwear & accessories for all your needs whether in or out of the water.

We are situated right on the beach in a protected, semi-private bay where the trade winds prevail! We are easy to find and offer ample free parking just steps from the store and the beach!

Happy face over our Condos

This is a first look at the Moon, Jupiter and Venus over the condo's as they appeared on December 01, 2008.




Then I got this next picture. click onto the black picture and scroll down a bit to see a better look at it . . . and then >


Then we got this happy face beauty. What are the odds of getting a picture like this.

Condo from Google Earth

If you like, you can click onto the picture and navagate around in it for a close up view. Now I say that this channel next to our condo's was "IN FACT" man made. Whereas I should have said, "IT CERTAINLY DOES LOOK MAN MADE"! I have no idea whether or not it was man made, but what do you think? Maybe somebody out there someday can validate or verify how the reef took that shape!

So now you can show where you live or where you took that Hawaiian vacation. Notice the beach and the grassy area? It's clean! No more nuts and leaves.

Flooring

First you're gonna want to find out if your floor is level. In this case, look at the thickness of the thinset in the center compared to the edges. Notice the chalk lines he made to square the wall with the front entry layout?





Even the living room was off level and had to be dealt with. Imagine if this tiler didn't level the rooms how the finished flooring would have turned out? Look at the thickness of the grout on the left side compared to that of the right side!






Next you're gonna want to find a common wall to start your layout. Here this tiler chose the wall line since his cut line will be easier to look at as it transitions into the bathroom, bedroom and kitchen.


See how smooth the transition was from the hallway into the kitchen?


Second, there is Laminate Flooring
Here in this first picture the laminate flooring started to shrink. Was it installation or was it a material defect. This was the best of the best of flooring in this model. It was considered Hotel High Traffic grade. It was installed by a certified installer.










A patch was removed from the flooring and sent back to the manufacturer who analyzed the materials.







Expansion joints were installed and it appeared that all the work was done properly.



After a short time, the installer called the unit owner to say that the entire flooring will be removed labor and materials at no cost to the homeowner. That was today Nov. 11, 2008. It appeared that the materials were in fact a factory defect and that the contractor did nothing improper in his installation. Everyone took a sigh of relief that the material manufacturer stood behind his product which is why this Resident Manager always applauds and supports contractors who live up to their warranties. This particular flooring contractor is: Jesse Oguma. He has a 3 man crew and can be reached on his cell at 864-9034 or his office at 484-5898 or his Email at truecraftsman@hawaii.rr.com He doesn't say it in his ad, but he is also certified by the Material manufacturer which in this case is Wilsonart Laminat Flooring.

Concrete Trivia

Repairs to the damaged planted part of Parking Lot B seemed to be a perfect spot to announce the Condos date of Original Construction.







Here's a close up.

Keyless Entry

After considering many door locks and keyless entry systems, it seems that the Schlage Model FE595 wins hands down. At the time of this posting, it can be purchased at Lowes or Home Depot for $130-$150 depending on the color Brass Gold being the most expensive, then Silver, then Flat Black. Then there is the Dead Bolt style instead of the lever door knob style Model BE365. The cost is the same. There are no restrictions on its use. There are 19 different combinations you can use at one time. They may be adjusted, changed or deleted at any time. I will install and program either one it at no charge for you. But shop around. It may be cheaper at another hardware store, and there may be sales on this product from time to time. My research is only intended to find a good product which worked for me . . . not to recommend any particular store.



As you can see, the handles can be changed out to face either left or right depending on the location of your entry door. This is the silver model which costs $140 at Lowes


This is the Brass Gold Model which costs $150 at Lowes.


On this third picture, you can see a door plug where the dead bolt was. You will not need to change your door if you use this plug. It runs around $9 at Ace Hardware and you can paint it so it will not be as visable. And finally this is the Flat Black Model which costs $130 at Lowes.
