On Thursday, the Hōkūle‘a will leave Juneau on a more than 40,000-mile journey — called Moananuiākea — with a goal of learning about land stewardship and unity from Indigenous communities around the world.
People on the shore heard Pu Kani — the sounding of the conch — as the twin-hulled, wind-powered voyaging canoe approached. Formline-painted yaakws brought the crew to shore as dancers performed in cedar hats and Chilkat robes.
The crew of the Hōkūle‘a and their Southeast navigators lined the beach, facing the Lingít elders who came to greet them. Houston led a song she learned from her grandmother to the visitors.Members of the Hōkūle‘a crew look on from shore during the welcome ceremony at Auke Rec on June 10, 2023. The voyaging canoe first sailed in 1975, when members of the Polynesian Voyaging Society started relearning traditional navigation methods from masters who have since passed. This will be its fifteenth voyage.
Blake said he was energized by the navigation and voyaging skills shared by Indigenous Hawaiians and Southeast Alaska Natives.
