Hawaii was great when I lived there. Maui - Lahaina specifically. It was never expensive, the sailing has some of the best variety there is -IMO. The deal with Lahaina was one to two storms per winter. Most boats were on private moorings in the roadstead during the storms you shoose to duck into the tiny harbor, sit on your mooring with the possibility of having to sail off if it gets too bad. I sat a couple out moored in 8' - 12" seas (fairly nervous), let out a ton of scope. I will say the last time I was out there there were quite a few less boats. The issue with locals is overblown & Honolulu is just another big city, fun to visit but I wouldn't want to live there.
GO FOR IT
