Sailng into the sunset. Here’s to voyages of 2026. 🌅🌊 #Hokulea #Hikianalia #MoananuiakeaVoyage | Hōkūleʻa Crew

The crew of Hōkūleʻa joined the Alaska Native community of Angoon, or Xutsnoowú Ḵwáan, on Monday, June 19, 2023, for the launch of its first traditional dugout canoe, or yaakw, in 140 years. The 30-foot long canoe made of red cedar was a project led by Tlingit master carver and canoe builder Wayne Price who worked with students from Angoon High School to help them see their own resilience after a traumatic history that still leaves lasting impacts on their village today.
