We recently saw Waterman, a documentary about Duke Paoa Kahanamoku, or “Duke” as he was affectionately known, Olympic gold medalist, world record holder and surfer. I had known about Duke for a long time, but did not know his story. This documentary does a good job of showing who the man was, the background against which he grew up as he left his mark on the world, and the love he had for Hawai’i and the people of these islands. Highly recommended. 🍿
