[status] Second Wind is now at a slip in Ala Wai Boat Harbor, and we felt an update about marina conditions would be appropriate. Contrary to information found online, there is no longer a fuel dock in the harbor, nor are there pumpout or laundry facilities. Shower keys require a $100 deposit per gender and don't always work. As of November 2019, moorage rates increased considerably; in addition, they charge $10 per person per day as a liveaboard fee. On the upside, many people found these conditions onerous and have left the marina, so there is no longer a shortage of available slips. We will stay here for the time being since the location is ideal, but are likely to look for alternatives after the first of the year.
