Hōkūleʻa Update | July 25, 2015
Hōkūleʻa is expected to depart Ashmore Reef between the afternoon of July 26, 2015 and the morning of July 27, 2015 (Australia time). In recent days, winds have been less than 10 knots. Apprentice navigator Jenna Ishii predicts that stronger winds will return tomorrow that will be more conducive to traditional navigation. Since arriving at Ashmore Reef, Worldwide Voyage crewmembers have explored an atoll and surrounding reef which are home to a variety of fish and coral. The crew also scrubbed Hōkūleʻa’s hulls and prepared her for Bali.
