Default Hokule'a west bound in the Panama canal

Polynesian Voyaging Society's double-hulled voyaging canoe Hokule'a west
bound in the upper chamber of the Miraflores locks. January 11, 2017

Because Hokule'a has no engines, and because of the turbulence and currents
within the canal, the canoe was safely towed by a powerful work vessel –
DWS Linda – through the canal.

Hokule'a has now arrived at the Galapagos.

next leg of her journey takes the canoe to Rapa Nui, Isla de Pascua
then to Pitcairn Island,
then the Marquesas Islands before returning home to Hawaii
