Hokuleʻa

Hōkūle‘a at Oshima channel, Yamaguchi-prefecture, Japan
Stern of portside hull and center steering sweep

Hōkūleʻa[1] is a performance-accurate full-scale 61-foot-5-inch (18.7 m) LOA, 15-foot-6-inch (4.72 m) beam, replica of a "Waʻa Kaulua," a double-hulled Polynesian voyaging canoe[2][3][4] (a specialized type of wooden sailing vessel) used in ancient Hawaiʻi, though she is built of plywood, fiberglass, and resin.[5] Hōkūle‘a displaces 16,000 pounds (7,260 kg) and can carry another 11,000 pounds (4,990 kg) between gear, supplies, and 12 to 16 crew. Fully laden, she is capable of speeds of 10 to 12 knots (12 to 14 mph; 19 to 22 km/h)[5] while reaching in 15-to-18-knot (17 to 21 mph; 28 to 33 km/h) trade winds. Her name means "star of gladness" in Hawaiian in reference to the star Arcturus, a guiding zenith star for Hawaiian navigators.[5] In layman's terms, the star passes directly overhead at Hawaiʻi's latitude.

Construction and purpose

Hōkūle‘a was launched on 8 March 1975[5] by the Polynesian Voyaging Society, and is best known for her 1976 voyage from Hawaiʻi to Tahiti, performed with Polynesian navigation techniques,[6] without modern navigational instruments.[7] The primary goal of the voyage was to further support the anthropological theory of the Asiatic origin of native Oceanic people (maps:detail, region), particularly Polynesians and Hawaiians, as the result of purposeful trips through the Pacific, as opposed to passive drifting on currents, or sailing from the Americas.[8][9][10] A secondary goal of the project was to have the canoe and voyage "serve as vehicles for the cultural revitalization of Hawaiians and other Polynesians." (Finney, Voyage of Rediscovery, p. 71)[11]

Description of Hōkūle‘a, the boat, is only part of her story, since she is navigated by non-instrument means. But no Hawaiian living in 1975 knew these ancient techniques for blue water voyaging.[12] To enable the voyage, the Polynesian Voyaging Society recruited the Satawalese Master Navigator Mau Piailug [of the Weriyeng school in the Caroline Islands (map) of the Federated States of Micronesia (map)] to share his knowledge of non-instrument navigation. While up to six Micronesian navigators still used these traditional methods as of the mid-1970s,[13] only Mau was willing to share his knowledge with the Polynesians.

Mau, who "barely spoke English," realized that by reaching beyond his own culture, through sharing what had been closely-guarded knowledge, he could possibly save it from loss. Through his collaboration with the Polynesian Voyaging Society, Mau's mentorship has helped "spark pride in the Hawaiian and Polynesian culture," leading to "a renaissance of voyaging, canoe building, and non-instrument navigation that has continued to grow, spreading across Polynesia (map) and reaching to its far corners of Aotearoa [New Zealand] and Rapanui [Easter Island]." (Thompson, Reflections on Mau Piailug, 1996)

Since 1976, Hōkūle‘a has completed nine more voyages to destinations in Micronesia, Polynesia, Asia, and the United States, all using ancient wayfinding techniques of celestial navigation. Her most recent voyage began 19 January 2007, when Hōkūle‘a left Hawaiʻi with the voyaging canoe Alingano Maisu on a voyage through Micronesia (map) and ports in southern Japan.[a] The voyage was expected to take five months; on 9 June 2007,[14] Hōkūle‘a completed the "One Ocean, One People" voyage to Yokohama, Japan.

When not on a voyage, Hōkūle‘a is moored at the Marine Education Training Center (METC) of Honolulu Community College in Honolulu Harbor.

List of voyages

1976 Inaugural Voyage

Hōkūle‘a, led by Captain Kawika Kapahulehua* and Navigator Mau Piailug, departed Honolua Bay, Mauʻi, Hawaiʻi for Papeʻete, Tahiti, as part of the celebration of the United States Bicentennial. Mau navigated the leg to Tahiti with only his traditional knowledge and skills while the return leg was navigated using modern methods and tools.

1977 Kealaikahiki Project

In English, the Hawaiian "Ke ala i kahiki" means "the path to Tahiti." The "Kealaikahiki Project" recreated the traditional departure of ancient voyages to Tahiti. Captain Gordon Piʻianaiʻa headed Hōkūle‘a southeast, across Kealaikahiki Channel between Lānaʻi and Kahoʻolawe Islands, past Kealaikahiki Point, into the ʻAlenuihāhā Channel and the northeast trade winds. After heading south for two days, Hōkūle‘a returned to Hawaiʻi. This traditional departure point would be used for subsequent sailings to Tahiti.[20][21]

1978 Tahiti Voyage

A second voyage to Tahiti was aborted when Hōkūle‘a capsized[22] and swamped in high wind and seas south of the Island of Molokaʻi, five hours after departing Honolulu's Ala Wai Harbor. The crew hung on to the swamped canoe through the night, launching flares unseen by passing aircraft and trying but failing to reach help with the emergency radio. By mid-morning, with no sign of rescue imminent, Eddie Aikau, a North Shore lifeguard, 1977 Duke Kahanamoku champion and big-wave surfer, attempted to paddle a surfboard about 12 miles to Lānaʻi for help. About nine hours after he paddled away, flares launched by the crew were spotted by a Hawaiian Airlines flight which circled Hōkūle‘a and radioed the United States Coast Guard (USCG). Half an hour later, a Coast Guard helicopter was hovering overhead; Hōkūle‘a and crew were subsequently rescued. Eddie Aikau was never seen again. Hōkūle‘a carries a plaque in his memory. Future voyages will be accompanied by an escort vessel.[23][24]

1980 Tahiti Voyage

1980: Native Hawaiian Navigator Nainoa Thompson recreated the 1976 voyage, becoming the first Native Hawaiian in modern times to guide a canoe without instruments.[23]

1985 - 1987 Voyage of Rediscovery

For voyages across the International Date Line, dates shown below are standardized on Hawai‘i time.

In the "Voyage of Rediscovery," Hōkūle‘a traveled a total distance of 12,000 miles (19,000 km) to destinations throughout Polynesia.[28][29] Inviting fellow Polynesians to join the crew on legs of the voyage extended Hōkūle‘a's success in revitalizing interest in Polynesian culture. For instance, professional Tongan sea captain Sione Taupeamuhu was aboard during a night passage from Tongatapu to Nomuka in the northerly Haʻapai Islands group of Tonga (map). He was skeptical that Hōkūle‘a navigator Nainoa Thompson could find Nomuka without instruments. When Nomuka appeared on the horizon at dawn as planned, Taupeamuhu remarked, "Now I can believe the stories of my ancestors."[30]

1992 No Na Mamo

Hōkūle‘a sailed to Tahiti, Raʻiatea, and on to Rarotonga for the Sixth Festival of Pacific Arts,[33] then, via Tahiti, sailed back to Hawaiʻi. This voyage, known as "No Na Mamo," or "For the Children," was designed to train a new generation of voyagers to sail Hōkūle‘a, to share values and knowledge of voyaging, and to celebrate the revival of canoe building and non-instrument navigation. The voyage included an educational component where Hawaiian students could track the progress of the canoe through daily radio reports.[34]

1995 Na ʻOhana Holo Moana

In the spring, Hōkūle‘a, along with sister ships Hawai‘iloa and Makali‘i, sailed from Hawaiʻi to Tahiti. They participated in a gathering of voyaging canoes from across Oceania at nearby Taputapeatea, Raʻiatea, which led to the lifting of a six-centuries-old tapu on voyaging from Raʻiatea,[39] then all the canoes returned to Tahiti, sailed to Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas, then on to Hawaiʻi.[40] This was only the first part of a voyage spanning spring and summer known as "Na ʻOhana Holo Moana," or The Voyaging Families of the Vast Ocean.[41][42]

In the summer: Hōkūle‘a and Hawai‘iloa sailed the West Coast of the United States. Both vessels were shipped to Seattle, Washington, after which they sailed to Vancouver, British Columbia. From there, Hawai‘iloa sailed as far north as Haines, Alaska.[43] Hōkūle‘a sailed south to San Diego via Portland, Oregon, and the California ports of San Francisco, Santa Barbara, and Long Beach. The voyaging canoes were shipped back to Hawaiʻi: Hōkūle‘a from San Diego; Hawai‘iloa from Seattle. This summer part of the voyage promoted cultural and educational exchanges with Hawaiians (some of whom had never been to Hawaiʻi), Native Americans, and other people living on the United States West Coast.

1999 - 2000 Voyage to Rapa Nui

1999: Hōkūle‘a sailed from Hawaiʻi to Rapa Nui (Easter Island) and back. A technically challenging voyage due to Rapa Nui's isolation and generally upwind location; it is known as "Closing the Triangle" because it takes the canoe to the southeastern Pacific for the first time.[50]


2003 - 2004 Navigating Change Project

2004: Hōkūle‘a's voyage of June 2004, led by Nainoa Thompson, took the canoe through the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands[51] to promote stewardship and awareness of this pristine area. Hōkūle‘a participated in an interagency initiative with this voyage named after the initiative, called "Navigating Change." Upon reaching the remote islands, the crew helped haul away hundreds of pounds of washed-up fishing nets which threatened Hawaiian monk seals and Hawaiian Green sea turtles and also helped with plant conservation. About 1,600 schoolchildren were linked to the vessel by daily satellite phone calls for which teachers prepared with curriculum guides, video and web resources.[52]

2007 One Ocean, One People

The "One Ocean, One People" theme united two voyages in celebration of Pacific voyaging, Pacific Islands, and cultural ties, in passages to Micronesia and Japan. These voyages were named "Ku Holo Mau" and "Ku Holo La Komohana".[53][54]

Ku Holo Mau

Accompanied by the canoe Alingano Maisu and specialized escort boat Kama Hele,[55] Hōkūle‘a sailed from Hawaiʻi to the Federated States of Micronesia, 23 January to 4 April 2007. This voyage is known as "Ku Holo Mau," or "Sail On, Sail Always, Sail Forever." While on the island of Satawal, the crew of the Hōkūle‘a presented the Alingano Maisu to Mau Piailug as a gift for his role in helping to revive traditional wayfinding navigation in Hawaiʻi.[56] While at Satawal, some Hōkūle‘a navigators who had proven their mastery of non-instrument sailing and navigation over many ocean passages were inducted into Pwo, pronounced "poh." This was the first Pwo ceremony on Satawal in five decades,[12] and the first time Polynesians were inducted.[57]

Ku Holo La Komohana

From Yap, the Hōkūle‘a sailed to Yokohama, Japan, 11 April 2007 to 8 June 2007. Upon sighting Kyūshū, navigation of coastal and inland seas utilized landmarks and aids to navigation. From departure to landfall at Okinawa, Japan, Hokule‘a was guided by Nainoa Thompson. Chad Baybayan then guided the vessel to further stops at Amami, Uto, Nomozaki, Nagasaki, Fukuoka, Shinmoji marina in Moji-ku, Iwaishima, and Suō-Ōshima (Oshima). Nainoa Thompson resumed as Captain for stops at Miyajima and Hiroshima. Bruce Blankenfeld then took over for stops at Uwajima, Muroto, Miura, and Kamakura before concluding the voyage in Yokohama.[70] This voyage is known as "Ku Holo La Komohana," or Sail On to the Western Sun. While Hokule‘a was shipped back to Honolulu, escort vessel Kama Hele sailed back to Oʻahu under German Captain Mike Weindl with six Japanese crewmembers.[71][72]

The journey was conceived to honor the cultural ties between Japan and Hawaiʻi, which began with the visit of King Kalakaua to the Emperor Meiji in 1881 and were strengthened by the subsequent emigration of thousands of Japanese contract laborers to the Islands' sugar plantations, many of whom remained in Hawaiʻi, forever weaving their heritage into the fabric of Island life. {{cite web}}: Check date values in: |date= (help)

  43. ^ Hawai‘iloa was built of traditional materials, with the sponsorship of the Bishop Museum's Native Hawaiian Culture and Arts Program in response to the Hōkūle‘a voyages' revival of interest in Native Hawaiian culture. But no healthy koa trees large enough for her hulls could be found in Hawaiʻi's forests. This dilemma led to action to help Hawaiʻ's environment including planting koa seedlings for future generations, because traditional Hawaiian culture and Hawaiʻi's environment interdepend. (See Sam Low, Sacred Forests on Polynesian Voyaging Society web site, retrieved 07 August 2008 quoting Nainoa Thompson about "Mālama Hawaiʻi") So, to build Hawai‘iloa without having to wait several centuries for the koa to grow, the Polynesian Voyaging Society accepted a gift of two enormous 400-year old Sitka spruce logs from the forests of the Tsimshian, Haida, and Tlingit Native Alaskans. Hawai‘iloa's voyage through Southeast Alaska was to thank these people for their kindness and to recognize their contribution to Hawaiian native culture (See Northwest-Alaska 1995 Home on Polynesian Voyaging Society web site, retrieved 7 August 2008)
