M/V ''Holoholo'' was a charter research vessel for the Research Corporation of the University of Hawaii (RCUH) for the Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) project. On 10 December 1978 Holoholo went missing at sea, presumed capsized and sank with all hands. ==History== ''Holoholo'' was built between 1959 and 1961 by E. R. Simmerer and launched in 1963 as a pleasure craft for Arthur F. Stubenberg, who had commissioned her. On 15 September 1978 Stubenberg sold ''Holoholo'' to John Laney for $75,000 by multiple payments until the amount was reached. John Laney had ''Holoholo'' converted into a research vessel.
