William (Willie) Ward has been a NAUI dive instructor since 1985, Hawaii resident since 1977 and former owner of Kona Reef Divers for 10 years.  Now in partnership with  Paul Warren, he has brought his vast sailing and diving experience to Hualalai Water Sports.  An avid sailor, he has made several trans- oceanic crossings during his career.  Look for him in and around the Manu Iwa.  If he's not there, he's probably surfing.

Paul Warren is a resident since 1982 on the Big Island.  Formerly the owner of Sun Seeker charters, he now has become one of the prime movers and shakers of Hualalai Water Sports and Kona Reef Divers as well as Sun Seeker Charters.  Paul is currently a dive instructor (NAUI), boat captain and extremely active in several Hawaiian reef conservation organizations.  Paul loves to play golf and drive around in  his vintage Corvette.
