Mo‘okiha O Pi‘ilani is the newest member of the Polynesian Oceangoing Canoe fraternity, built by Hui O Wa’a Kaulua, Maui's Voyaging Society. The ancient Polynesians built similar craft from large trees which they hollowed out, connecting two in parallel with cross members to provide a stable base. The crab claw sail (AKA Oceanic lateen or sprit) was triangular in shape with spars along the upper and lower edges. Traditionally, the sails were made of woven pandanus leaves which are resilient and resistant to salt water. Launch Day, Friday July 11th had finally arrived. The actual launch time was to coincide with the high tide that afternoon. I had heard that the Governor was coming and these guys looked like security (note the earpiece that the guy on the left was wearing). We had a nice chat and found some common elements in that the guy on the left had relatives living in Phoenix.
