Kealoha 8 is named on 26th April 2006.

Kealoha 8 of Southampton was officially named in a ceremony which took place in the docks adjacent to Canary Wharf, London’s new financial area. Family and friends gathered, with Guest of Honour being Joan Holliday, who named the very first Kealoha.

Diana Holliday performed the traditional ceremony by breaking a bottle of champagne across the bows, with the traditional blessing
“I name this yacht Kealoha 8 of Southampton, God bless all who sail on her”

Floss & Jarrod had laid on a great spread, so followed a riotous evening of eating drinking and dreaming of future voyages.
