Kia Kaha's Wainui OC-1

... Translation in Maori means "Big Water"

The WAINUI canoe is back in production. I have just returned from overseeing the production of the first canoe and am very impressed with the quality and workmanship coming out of this factory. I believe the quality is comparable with any Hawaii built canoes. We will have a demo available on Oahu in March and 6 canoes in April, on a first-come first-served basis. Also taking pre-orders for future deliveries. - Maui

Maui Kjeldsen designed the WAINUI to serve as an all-around canoe for the average sized paddler, to be fast on flat water while excelling in sizable ocean conditions.

The Wainui glides in flat water and excels in rough, sloppy conditions as well.
Seat and ama configuration create a canoe that gives the paddler amazing control.
