Hawaii Waterman
Hall of Fame

Individuals are inducted into the Hawaii Waterman Hall of Fame for their sustained outstanding contribution to the sport, and their international, national, and local accomplishment and recognition. The Hawaii Waterman Hall of Fame honors those remarkable legends within our islands’ water sports community whose lifetime of contributions have inspired and perpetuated the unique connection between our kamaaina and the ocean.  If you would like to nominate an individual who has been an exceptional contributor to our waterman community, please download and fill out the nomination form here and email info@dukefoundation.org.


The next induction event will be take place in fall of 2024.
