The Robin Masters Estate (Pahonu)

[Fat Jack]

I had to smile with part of the PO Box number etc. for Hoaloha Holdings.......
P.O. Box 3081
Telluride, Colorado 81435-3081
What a coincidence!

I only see multiple sites that has Hoaloha Holdings LLC in Honolulu, hence my confusion with the Colorado connection one news outlet had. The KITV reporter never got back to me. Just a few of the many I saw...

Nevermind, I think I figured it out. The contact name/address that continually came up for Hoaloha Holdings is David Pietsche III who lives in Honolulu and has the Hawaii address I kept seeing. Now I see he's a VP at Land Title Guarantee (http://www.bizjournals.com/pacific/potm ... etsch,_III), which is based in Colorado.

OK, I'm not crazy!

Here's a nice photo of Pahonu's new owners, Marty Nesbitt and Dr. Anita Blanchard:

Since the sale of Pahonu, Maybe this should be our target for the "new" Estate.

Also, just my personal opinion, but I think Steve, a couple posts back, hit on the scenario that sounds very plausible, at least to me. Gonna take a WHOLE lotta money to refurb, maintain and stay at Robin's Nest....can't think of anyone more able than Miss Winfrey, unless it'd be Mr. Gates........

We know that the people involved are associated with Mr. Obama; are they also associated with Ms. Winfrey?

Think this uber rich woman wouldn't do anything for the Obama's...From Chicago' Grant Park Rally for the newly elected President back in 2008.........

I wonder if Marty Nesbitt and Dr. Anita Blanchard are in need a new head of security for their new beach front estate.... perhaps I could work out some sort of a deal...

A few more crumbs of info on the sale..............

Who in the group is going to fess up to offering Mary a few bucks to view Pahonu?
I don't remember seeing an actual separate website for Pahonu, just the standard listing info that you normally see.
Does anyone remember seeing one?

[KENJI]

I can't remember if we have seen these exact documents before so I'll post them anyway....apologies if someone else has posted them. I know we've touched on the subject, but there is too many posts on this thread to find it. There is a GREAT drawing/map of Pahonu that is similar to the one that RG found and posted. Enjoy! I know Pahonu will!!!

Funny you should mention this...just found this last night. Sorry if it has been posted here before. It's obviously not a website, but I assume Mary Worrall/Sotheby's must have hired the company, Slick Pixels Hawaii: http://vimeopro.com/hiep/41505kalanianaole

It kinda' makes me sad

I've been trying to figure that out myself. Any techies out there who can enlighten us?

OK, I got it. I use Firefox so here's what I did.

I did a google search for a video downloader and installed it: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefo ... rofession/

Then I went back to the video and refreshed it (don't know if the refresh was necessary), then right-clicked on the video. In the dropdown you can now select "Video Downloader Professional" - click on it, then choose download video.

Kenji, you know me too well. The new surveyor's map is exactly what I needed...ten years ago. When I think of the time I spent trying to put all the pieces together over the years...oh boy! On the plus side, it confirms much of my work as accurate. The only thing left on my wish list would be actual floor plans of the structures. Dare I hope?

More changes need to be made to the model now, especially regarding the rear courtyard of the main house and courtyard behind the garage. I also saw the video from Fat Jack. I'm assuming it was a drone flyover. It showed me several mistakes on my model at the rear of the main house. I'm going to have to start a list.

These documents are very interesting. Thank you! Correct me if I'm wrong here, but they indicate the seawall is actually an encroachment on state land based on the mean high tide line which has moved between .5 and 1 foot further up the beach since 1949! They say only the pocket of beach where the seawalls jut in remain as sandy beach, and even that is under water at the highest tides. I can only imagine how wide the beach was in 1933 when the house was constructed.

The end result is that, because the seawalls were built prior to 1964, they can remain for now with a 55 year easement granted. That does allow the state to possibly reclaim the land in the future, though.
