Oh I understand that and I think it's great that this is being enforced. I'm not interested in landing at the monument, however, I'm a bit confused by this landing permit application:
http://sbhawaii.com/hawaii/kona/keal...ing_permit.pdf
It indicates that non-commercial vessels (incl rentals) can apply for a landing permit and that only 10 permits are issued per day.
I'm not suggesting that this refers to landing at the monument; in fact, I'm trying to figure out what it means. Is this just an outdated form?
Thanks again!!
To answer my own question: it's an outdated form, which is why I was confused. The above process is no longer in place.
