Hōkūleʻa and Hikianalia voyage to Fiji and Tuvalu postponed due to weather conditions

The voyage of the Hōkūleʻa and Hikianalia to Fiji and Tuvalu has been postponed due to gale-force winds and cold fronts.
The voyaging canoes Hōkūleʻa and Hikianalia, along with their crews, were prepared and ready to depart Auckland for Fiji and Tuvalu last week to support Pacific leaders and communities gathering around the UNFCCC Pre-COP. However, a series of cold fronts and gale-force winds delayed the canoes’ departure from Aotearoa.
