Mabuhay Chamoro...I am working in the middle east and I have big fishing boats in the philippines in the island of Mindoro but definitely I am going build one of this proa when I got back home and I also want to have a tiki 24 ft catamaran. Its my ultimate dream to sail in the inter islands.

Canoe introduced by Carolinians? Looks those from Satawal and Chuuk outerislands

Perpetuating our culture is important. Canoe building and sailing has been lost due to the cultural genocide of 377 years of Spanish occupation. Revitilizing what was lost is now found, and therefore, keep up the good work.

@@islandguy6928 I understand what you're trying to say but each Micronesian island has there unique way of building a canoe and im not mad im just saying if the guy in the video said it the canoe was build from a chuukese guy from polowat then why did they say the canoe is from guam bro I was raised on guam and guam don't have any canoe cause the people who build those traditional canoes are my people

@@ropejeek9538 This uniqueness of building a canoe is found all over our region.You sure? Sounds like you are.Met countless of your countryfolk claim the same thing how Mau Piailug and his people are somewhat “chuukese”.Glossing over the fact Yapese&Chamorros are much older.The well known navigators&canoe builders in all Western Micronesia are the Yapese.Their influence spread far and wide.

I have many chamorro customers at my grocery store in Odessa,Texas,U.S.A. Susie carries the traditional foods & betel nut that the people want. This is the oil fields of west Texas. There are lots of jobs here people for willing to work hard. How long to fly from LAX to Guam? I would like to sail one of these boats.

In Spanish books there are drawings of the Chamorro canoes that look exactly like the ones in the video. Again, we did come from the same people and we are in the same region of the pacific which is a reason we may have similar almost identical traditions or in this case, canoes
