Chun heads a canoe group, Na Kalai Wa`a, which is in the process of building a "vaka nui," as Chief Kaveia called it - a very large, double-hull voyaging canoe called the "Namahoe."The VTP team were guests at their open house last December, meeting many of Hawai`i's leaders of the voyaging canoe community.

NAINOA THOMPSON (white shirt, kneeling), famous Hawaiian navigator with the Polynesian Voyaging Society in Hawai`i, and others interested in traditional outrigger canoe voyaging, admire the lauhala sail crafted by the Taumako.Thompson said he was pleased to finally meet the chief and his people because he'd been hearing about the Taumako for some time.
