Announcing the inaugural Hawaiian Open of Spearfishing with a unique OPEN tournament format where everyone is a winner. The Hawaiian Open of Spearfishing hopes to attract the world’s top competitive divers to the newest roi shooter on the island with a fun yet serious tournament format and the BIGGEST spearfishing prize table in the Pacific.
The tournament format is simplified with one word "OPEN" all waters surrounding the island of Oahu are "OPEN", and all forms of muscle powered watercraft are "OPEN". The species list, that's "OPEN" too with each diver being able to weigh-in one gamefish and an "OPEN" number of invasives, which means unlimited roi, taape, or toau.
Each diver's score is calculated individually with the following formula the weight of one gamefish (no sharks, rays, eels, balloon/puffer fish allowed) with a max-scoring limit of 30 pounds combined with the total weight of all speared invasive fish species (roi, taape, toau, paddle-tail snapper).
The diver with the highest combined points of gamefish (max of 30 scoring pounds) and invasive species will be declared the top-scorer and will be allowed FIRST CHOICE from the prize table.
The diver with the 2nd highest combined score will be the second person allowed to choose a prize from the table. Thereafter each tournament participant, according to the tournament director’s discretion, will be allowed to choose their prize from the prize table in the order of their scoring until all tournament participants have been called and everyone has claimed a prize of their choosing.
Clarification on the rules:
- Divers must leave from Oahu's shoreline by swimming or via a muscle powered watercraft.
- Divers must following all current Hawaii State Fishing regulations and laws.
- Divers must use muscle powered slings or pneumatic spearguns in their fishing.
- Divers may not use scuba or other artificial breathing equipment
- Divers must weigh-in or be in line to weigh-in their catch by 4:00 PM or be disqualified.
- If any tie in scoring exists, the diver with the earlier registration for the event will place ahead of the later registering diver.
