Two brightly reflective objects skimming only feet above the water and moving at a steady speed. It was a clear sunny day at around 11:00 AM. I was riding my bike to Lanikai from Kailua beach, and at the top of a small hill that overlooks the ocean, near Flat Island, I saw two lights that were horizontaly a short distance from eachother. they sped along to the right, away from Flat Island. They appeared to be farther away than the island, but I cant tell for sure because I never saw them go behind the island. They were barely above the water, and they frequently disappeared behind the swells, then reappeared a few seconds later. They only moved in one steady direction, and appeared to be going quite fast, if I had to estimate I would say around 60-70 mhp, although it was impossible to tell for sure because the distance from me was impossible to tell. They looked a lot like the type of like reflected by shiny metal. It was not putting out its own light, rather reflecting the sunlight. I couldnt tell the shape of the crafts because they were entirely covered by the bright reflection. If I was to estimate a size or shape, I would say not more than 3 feet across, apparantly as a sphere. As they traveled, the distance between the two lights appeared to remain EXACTLY the same, they didnt spread out or come closer together. I am sure it wasn't a boat, becuase there was nothing under the lights when the came clearly into view above the choppy waves. ((NUFORC Note: Date is approximate. PD))
