50 Years of Hōkūle‘a

double-hulled voyaging canoe is scheduled to set sail once again, re-embarking on its Moananuiākea Voyage with the goal of visiting 36 countries and archipelagos, in- cluding ports in Asia, along the U.S. West Coast, and in Mexico. The journey ahead remains full of promise, with Hōkūle‘a continuing to sail across the Pacific and be- yond, deepening her connections with Indigenous communities and sharing the message of mālama ho- nua (to care for our Island Earth).

She won’t return home to Hawai‘i until 2028, carrying with her the stories, lessons, and relationships forged along the way. For Black, he hopes to contin- ue educating future generations about Polynesian voyagers and their knowledge and respect for the ocean. He believes that we can learn a lot from their wisdom, stewardship, and perpetuation of cultural values. “I hope more people get involved,” Black says, reflecting on PVS and

its mission. In 2016, the Outrig- ger Canoe Club added Holoholo, a 30-foot double-hulled sailing canoe, to its fleet. Black sees it as a valuable training vessel for young Outrigger members, hop- ing their time aboard will spark a passion for voyaging and inspire them to join the larger sailing canoe community. His advice to the next generation of voyag- ers is simple: show up at PVS. “They’ll put you to work,” he says with a smile. ■
