Leap of faith

Article Abstract:

Hawaii's infamous Alenuihaha channel gets its name from the strong trade winds, the strong currents, and the standing waves that when combined make a rough crossing of epic proportions. Bruce Halabisky and wife Tiffany sail smoothly across the channel as by a leap of faith they were spared the wrath of the wind.
