Benjamin T. Dumaran Jr. restores Hawaiʻiloa, the historic canoe of the Polynesian Voyaging Society (PVS); Dumaran works as the continuous training and development program instructor for Shop 38 at Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard & Intermediate Facility (PHNSY & IMF) and has sailed aboard and used his carpentry skills to help repair and restoration all three PVS canoes: Hōkūleʻa, Hikianalia and Hawaiʻiloa. From January 18-24, the Hōkūleʻa docked at the Rainbow Bay Marina in Pearl Harbor and the crew offered tours, educational presentations, and activities to Hawaiʻi’s communities. Hōkūleʻa, the historic voyaging canoe and sister canoe of the Hawaiʻiloa, has been described as a symbol of resilience, revival, cultural pride, environmental stewardship, peace, and hope. During the canoe’s recent visit to Pearl Harbor, she became a symbol of human connection. (U.S. Navy photo courtesy of Benjamin T. Dumaran Jr.)
