Outrigger Canoe
Outrigger Canoe
Outrigger Canoe were originally developed in South East Asia. They were used at transport to both eastward to Polynesia and New Zealand, and westward across the Indian Ocean as far as Madagascar. Today, it is a modern growing sport. Most outrigger racing can trace its roots to the Polynesian cultures of Tahiti and Hawaii.
