The Polynesian voyaging canoe guided only by nature as it circles the globe has reached South Africa,the most dangerous distance partly because of complicated ocean conditions.
The canoe Hokulea left Hawaii last year,and its crewmembers are sailing without modern navigation(导航)equipment.They are using the waves and the position of the stars to help,sailing the way that brought the first Polynesians to the Hawaiian Islands.
Hokulea was first built and launched in the 1970s in an attempt to revive Polynesian finding way in the sea.The first voyage to Tahiti in 1976 was successful and the canoe became an icon.The latest voyage is called Malama Honua,which means “to care for our Earth.”
By the time the voyage is expected to end in 2017,crewmembers will have sailed more than 60,000 miles.They arrived in Cape Town,where crewmembers are teaching the local community about traditional navigation,native Hawaiian culture and ways to care for the ocean.
Nainoa Thompson described a moment when Hawaii students who have joined up with the voyage met with children in Cape Town.The members didn’t know how to connect until their own children danced,and then the local children followed,which gave them a chance to witness what world peace looks like and sounds like.The stop was made possible with permission from a Nobel Peace Prize winner,Archbishop Desmond Tutu,who blessed the canoe during a 2017 visit to Hawaii.
