Ralph's Ray is named after Ralph Chamberlin from Big Island Divers - a long time scuba instructor in Kona and a great Manta Lover. Ralph's Ray is a little pup with a 4 feet wingspan. We hope he will stay in the area as he has already enjoyed the plankton on several nights since his first appearance.
