Read about this on the A-30 mailing list today.  Left san Diego in February and arrived Hawaii 23 March.

Here's the blog, which has not been updated yet (http://www.alberg30.blogspot.com/)  ;)

Congrats to the crew of Kolohe, Alberg 30 #473.

I thought this was the boat, and just confirmed it.

CapnK mention this Alberg 30 in an earlier post (http://sailfar.net/forum/index.php/topic,627.msg10128.html#msg10128).

Finally sold for less than $1000, took a couple of years to rebuild and now she's done a crossing.  Very cool.

All he's missing is a sailfar.net sticker!   ;D

And, they've posted a brief video of the trip:

4-5 knots under just Genoa...looks like some mighty sweet sailing.   :)
