Volunteers


Mahalo to all of the volunteers who make the running of this historic race possible!

Volunteer opportunities and contact info listed below.

BOAT HOSTING

Leandra Velasco: 2025transpacboathost@gmail.com

One of the Transpac Race traditions is the legendary Aloha Welcome Party for each boat at the finish line. Each boat is greeted at the dock with leis and Mai Tais, followed by a party with delicious food and more cocktails.

It is a great time for all. You can help in two ways:

  1. Join the Party Crew! Help is needed to assist and coordinate the arrival of boats and the parties that follow.
  2. Gather a Party Hui and welcome a boat. Your group will sponsor a boat by providing a welcome party for the crew and family at the finish line.

Interested in helping out: Sign up here


INFORMATION / HEADQUARTERS

Linda Byrd: lindabyrd101@gmail.com

Transpac Headquarters "Information Volunteers" track the competitors beginning at 100 miles from finish. Their primary purpose is to call or text the people associated with the Transpac HNL Operations; the boat's designated point of contact; and the boat arrival host.

We also provide public information and assistance to anyone who stops by or calls the Shack.

Our goal is to man the "Transpac Shack" 24 hrs once the competitors begin approaching the islands.


MOORING

Clifford Change: tphnlpierops@gmail.com

Be part of the team bringing competitors into their slip and finally to land. Volunteers are responsible for assisting in docking and the management of the shore scene upon arrival until the Race Inspectors have completed their interaction with the boat & crew.

Mooring volunteers are separate from boat hosting volunteers.
