[Cabling network system of the Kona Blue aquaculture Sea Station.]

Resembling something out of the portfolios of Frei Otto or Cedric Price, the Kona Blue Sea Stations off the coast of Hawaii are open sea offshore 3,000-cubic-meter submersible fish pens.

Kona Blue’s premiere achievement is Kona Kampachi^®, a premium sushi-grade Hawaiian yellowtail species.

Currently, four open ocean aquaculture operations growing finfish, two operations in Hawaii, one in Puerto Rico and one in New Hampshire. All four operations grow species native to their area. All four use similar technology in their operations, including a set of submerged cages moored to the ocean bottom.
