Another View from Ka'u

A view of Ka'u looking toward the coast. You can see that there is quite a ways to go vertically to get to the water. Those boat lifts don't look like they could lift much of a boat. Especially since you have to walk the boat to the edge of the cliff.

An interesting note, if you look closely, behind the lifts is a wind farm. These are old turbines made by Mitsubishi that are in bad shape. This spot in Hawaii has hte most constant wind in the whole country.

One would think that more wind farms like this would show up. After all most of the land around here is ranches. However, Hawaii prefers to get its power from old diesel generators.
