"Throughout my crossings of Ka'iwi, I have been blessed with seeing whales, dolphins and beautiful moon and stars. I have also seen gigantic waves where boats are literally in survival state- this channel has many attitudes. As a professional Kayaker, I have been able to escort and guide some of the world's best swimmers through this extremely remote channel. KCS is a one-of-a-kind race that should not be taken lightly and is designed for some of the most competitive, experienced and trained athletes in the world." - Steve Haumschild, Race Director

" Steve and I have been thinking about this for a while. Neither of us were interested in any lesser swims but yeah, we're ready to step up and be race directors for this one. I feel like the Kaiwi Channel is my backyard. I've crossed in a Hobie Cat, on paddleboards and on a kayak many times assisting some of the best swimmers in the world to achieve their dream.

I think we're going to put some meaning back in the term epic.
I am in awe of this channel and will be making sure everyone treats it with the respect it deserves. " - Jeff Kozlovich, Race Director
