hokule'a


Hokule'a est une grande pirogue double célèbre pour avoir réalisé en mai-juin 1976 un voyage de 5 370 kilomètres sans instrument de navigation entre Hawaï et Tahiti, voyage qui permettait de prouver la capacité des anciens Polynésiens à passer d'île en île dans l'océan Pacifique et donc à établir une parenté irréfutable entre les différentes populations du triangle polynésien.
En langue hawaïenne, Hokule'a signifie "étoile du bonheur" et désigne Arcturus, dans la constellation du Bouvier. Elle est l'étoile zénithale de l'île principale de Hawaii, et permettait aux navigateurs venant de l'hémisphère sud de rejoindre aisément le groupe des îles Sandwich. (Source Wikipédia)
Hōkūleʻa[2][3] is a performance-accurate waʻa kaulua,[4][5] a Polynesian double-hulled voyaging canoe.[6][7] Launched on 8 March 1975[8] by the Polynesian Voyaging Society, she is best known for her 1976 Hawaiʻi to Tahiti voyage completed with exclusively Polynesian navigation techniques[9][10] The primary goal of the voyage was to explore the anthropological theory of the Asiatic origin of native Oceanic people (Oceania maps:detail, region), of Polynesians and Hawaiians in particular, as the result of purposeful trips through the Pacific, as opposed to passive drifting on currents, or sailing from the Americas.[11][12] (DNA analysis illuminates this theory.[13]) A secondary project goal was to have the canoe and voyage "serve as vehicles for the cultural revitalization of Hawaiians and other Polynesians".[14]
Between the 1976 voyage and 2009, Hōkūle‘a completed nine additional voyages to Micronesia, Polynesia, Japan, Canada and the mainland United States, all using ancient wayfinding techniques of celestial navigation. On 19 January 2007, Hōkūle‘a left Hawaiʻi with the voyaging canoe Alingano Maisu on a voyage through Micronesia (map) and ports in southern Japan.[a] The voyage was expected to take five months. On 9 June 2007,[15] Hōkūle‘a completed the "One Ocean, One People" voyage to Yokohama, Japan. On April 5, 2009,[16] Hōkūle‘a returned to Honolulu following a roundtrip training sail to Palmyra Atoll,[17][18] undertaken to develop skills of potential crewmembers for Hōkūle‘a's eventual circumnavigation of the earth.[19]
On May 18, 2014, Hōkūle‘a and her sister vessel, Hikianalia embarked from Oahu for "Malama Honua", a three-year circumnavigation of the earth. She returned to port in Hawaii on June 17, 2017. The journey covered 47,000 nautical miles with stops at 85 ports in 26 countries.[20][21]
In between voyages, Hōkūle‘a is moored at the Marine Education Training Center (METC) of Honolulu Community College in Honolulu Harbor. (From Wikipédia)
