So sit back, relax, and vacation with us without ever leaving town. He competed against Kahanamoku, then 34, at the Olympics and went on to fame as the best-known movie Tarzan.

While picnicking on the beach at Corona del Mar, California, he witnessed a foot fishing vessel capsize offshore. He immediately paddled his surfboard through the large waves and rescued eight people.

His heroism made national headlines and contributed to the mystique of the handsome Hawaiian who seemed to perform miracles in the water. He was in many ways pure of heart—a very simple, loving person who had this huge bunch of charisma that became commodified by everyone around him.

Whether Catalina actually used the trademark remains a point of confusion among the parties. Outrigger then sued Carr, claiming that he had bought an abandoned trademark and that Outrigger was the true owner. It was around this time that Carr realized just how forceful an opponent Outrigger could be. At The Outrigger Canoe Club, members dine at its terraced restaurant in beach slippers and aloha shirts. Kahanamoku was one of the only Hawaiians granted membership in the early days, and although the club has long since abandoned its race-based exclusionary policy, most of its members today are Caucasian, or part-Caucasian.

The practice of awarding some foundation money to children of Outrigger members is one reason that Cameron Kahanamoku, a great-nephew of Duke Kahanamoku, joined Carr in fighting Outrigger for control of the trademark. Current foundation president Jim Fulton says the foundation has recently tightened its policy of awarding grants to Outrigger members. The grant application requires that recipients demonstrate financial need, but when asked whether Outrigger qualifies in that regard, Fulton admits that Outrigger is not financially needy.

Cameron Kahanamoku says he told Carr in that he wanted to do something to honor his Hawaiian heritage and Carr suggested that they make careers for themselves by creating a Duke line of clothing. Eventually, they also agreed to form the Kahanamoku Family Foundation, which would distribute a portion of trademark proceeds to Kahanamoku family members many of whom live on modest incomes and fund scholarships to improve arts education for low-income Hawaiian children.

It all started with two best friends, Rob Thibaut and Sandy Saxten. They decided to design restaurants in locations where they wanted to live, work and play. With over four decades of restaurant experience, the Thibaut and Saxten families are proud to carry on their family legacy. We set the bar for destination restaurants, delivering great food, a welcoming experience, and memories that last a lifetime. Duke Landry is the owner of the restaurant, which opened its first location in Watson two years ago.

The restaurant specializes in ounce ribeyes, sirloin strips, seafood gumbo, and charbroiled oysters. Landry is a fan of the grilled or fried steak bites, and the hamburger, made with meat that's ground in house.

So far, the five-time U. The opportunity came up with Rudy and Loretta Chandler to open the first one. We were thinking it would be another five years before we open another one.
