Kānehūnāmoku, a 29ft, double hulled, sailing canoe, is a hands-on, dynamic, and living classroom for students of all ages.  Based at Kaʻalaea in Kāneʻohe Bay, students become crew members and learn all aspects of sailing the canoe, including maritime skills, non-instrumental navigation, elemental observations, teamwork and communication.
