on this historic voyage. He reviews the construction of the
canoe, the ancient Polynesian navigation techniques used on
the voyage, who were the crew members and how they were
selected, and the data generated by the trip for the
benefit of science and culture. The canoe visited many
islands of Polynesia including New Zealand, Tonga,
Samoa, the Cook Islands, and Tahiti.

Tahiti and New Zealand, and navigation was done without
instruments. Elisa Yadao and Cliff Watson of KGMB cover the

Hawaii, and a look back at the voyage of rediscovery.
