TASA COLLABORATION
GSPN is working with Traditions Affirming Our Seafaring Ancestry, Inc. dba TASA chartered in 2010 is a non-profit traditional voyaging organization.
TASA’s ‘Saina’ Sakman will be used for the Outrigger Lift. Now retired, it was the first traditional sailing canoe built on Guam and to make the first celestial non-instrumental voyage in nearly 250 years. It was built and voyaged by TASI in May 2009 (Guam-Luta-Guam) and navigated by the great master navigator MannySikau from Puluwat. The smaller ‘Geftao’ will be in the water for the Proa Pull.
TASA will be selling food, drinks and beer and all proceeds will go toward the restoration of the Canoe Hut at Paseo.
