What's this?

Time to tap the collective imagination of everyone out there. What is this thing? Paul Bunyan's Tee Shot? Pele's Crystal Ball? It was last seen heading around Diamond Head, towards Moloka`i. Apparently being pursued by a tug boat (not shown).

An apple napple for the most creative answer.

On Edit: Sue points out that the photo doesn't really capture the scale of this thing. It's taller than a cruise ship!

Sorry for not having the most creative answer, but I think you can find the answer here

I moved Bruce's reply over to this comment chain and fixed the link.

So far Jay's got the best response in number 3. :-)

I figured the thing was SDI based, but I didn't realize that it was self-propelled. I'd like to think some modern day Winger and Ziskey are off on a joy ride.

Isn't it a spotting and jump-off platform for big-wave riders? I figured they were moving it over to Makaha for the monster outside sets.....*s*
