AN EXTRAORDINARY SAIL adorns the splendid hull of this Hawaiian Fishing canoe model.

Framed by a delicate Polynesian trim symbolizing the sea on one side and the sky on the other, the sail appeals to both a place and a time.

There is the Hāhālua, or the manta ray in Hawaiian, framed by creatures of the sea on each corner: red coral, a crab, and an octopus `

In Hawaiian culture, the Hāhālua is deeply respected and often viewed as an " 'Aumakua"- an ancestral or family guardian that offers protection and guidance.

Those designs are not stickers, and they are not printed.

IT IS ALL HAND-PAINTED. There is no second with the same design.

The hull, which is 18 inches long, is of beautiful curly Koa. The height of the vessel is 20 inches from the base of the wooden display stand up to the top of the mast. The width is eleven inches. The canoe is supplied with a brass-style engraved identification plaque.

The canoe is ready and available. The sail is final and not subject to replacement.
