Wing Foil Channel Crossing

BOBO GALLAGHER

11 year old Bobo Gallagher was crossing the Alenuihaha channel with his Wing Foil gear - 43 miles of harsh winds and high seas. Bobo is not only the youngest, but also the first person to cross this channel. It is located between Maui and Big Island and is known as one of the most dangerous channels in the world. With a little over 40 miles to cross, the journey took him only 3 hours! He’s been training for this for a while and it´s an amazing achievement. Big congratulations Bobo! Bobo chose to dedicate his epic journey to a charity which aims to provide clean water for people that don’t have access to it.
