At the end of their journey from Bali to Mauritius, Leg 14 crewmembers reflect on lessons learned while on board Hōkūleʻa.

Challenging weather conditions prevent Hōkūleʻa from sighting Mauritius.

"We have worked hard to get this far, some 3,300 miles across an ocean that has not seen a vessel like this in centuries."

Hōkūleʻa sights the island of Rodrigues, a way point en route to Mauritius.

Nāʻālehu Anthony reports from on board Hōkūleʻa en route to Mauritius.

Hōkūleʻa retraces the route taken by ancient seafarers through the Indian Ocean that are depicted in stone carvings at Borobudur Temple.

"Today I share with you what today was like, a typical day on the canoe where every day is the same and yet completely different than the day before."

"Just a touch here and there keeps her going straight, anticipating the canoe movement before she gets too far off the mark. That's the rhythm that makes the work go easier; the connection to vessel stronger."
