Английская Википедия:Alingano Maisu
Шаблон:Short description Alingano Maisu, also known as Maisu Шаблон:IPAc-en, is a double-hulled voyaging canoe built in Kawaihae, Hawaii, by members of Na Kalai WaШаблон:Okinaa Moku o HawaiШаблон:Okinai and Шаблон:OkinaOhana Wa'a members from throughout the Pacific and abroad as a gift and tribute to Satawalese navigator Mau Piailug, who navigated the voyaging canoe [[Hokulea|HōkūleШаблон:Okinaa]] on her maiden voyage to Tahiti in 1976 and has since trained numerous native Hawaiians in the ancient art of wayfinding. The word maisu comes from the Satawalese word for breadfruit that has been knocked down by storm winds and is therefore available for anyone to take. The name is said to symbolize the knowledge of navigation that is made freely available.[1]
The concept for Alingano Maisu came about in 2001 when two Hawaiian voyaging groups, the Polynesian Voyaging Society and Na Kalai WaШаблон:Okinaa Moku o HawaiШаблон:Okinai, met with Piailug. The two hulls of the Шаблон:Convert vessel were fabricated by the Friends of HōkūleШаблон:Okinaa and HawaiШаблон:Okinailoa on [[Oahu|OШаблон:Okinaahu]] and shipped to the [[Hawaii (island)|Island of HawaiШаблон:Okinai]] where Na Kalai WaШаблон:Okinaa completed construction of the canoe. The Polynesian Voyaging Society provided much of the funding for the voyaging aspect of the project as well as an escort boat to help sail the canoe to Satawal.[2]
The canoe is home-ported on the island of Yap under the command of Piailug's son, Sesario Sewralur.[3]
Maiden voyage
Accompanied by [[Hokulea|HōkūleШаблон:Okinaa]], the Maisu left Kawaihae, Hawaii, on January 18, 2007. After stops in the Marshall Islands, Pohnpei, and Chuuk, the Maisu reached Satawal on March 15, 2007. On March 18, while on Satawal, five native Hawaiian navigators on the voyage were inducted into pwo, a sacred Micronesian brotherhood of master navigators.[4]
HōkūleШаблон:Okinaa and Maisu both left Satawal on March 20 and made stops in Woleai, Ulithi and Yap before reaching Palau. The Maisu then returned to Yap, while the HōkūleШаблон:Okinaa continued on to Japan.[5]
In June 2008, Palau Community College announced that there will be a one-year program in traditional non-instrumental navigation on the Alingano Maisu under Sesario Sewralur.[6]
