Health care aboard the Hokulea--energy requirement study.
The Hokulea was designed and built as an archaeological experiment to test the theory of "intentional exploration and colonization of Polynesia as opposed to the theory of accidental settlement." It is a 60-foot replica of an early Polynesian voyaging canoe. First launched in the spring of 1975, the Hokulea has made multiple voyages between Hawaii and Tahiti navigated without the use of instruments of any kind. The Polynesian Voyaging Society is the no-for-profit corporation that built and operates the Hokulea and the Hawaii Loa, a larger double-hulled sailing vessel scheduled for its maiden voyage in 1995.
