Abstract
Dr. David Lewis has contributed two earlier papers to the Journal on Polynesian navigation: ‘Ara Moana’ in 1964, a theoretical examination of navigation methods, and ‘An experiment in Polynesian navigation’ in 1966, an account of his own voyage in the catamaran Rehu-Moana from Tahiti to New Zealand. The present paper presents the result of further research which included voyages between the islands with Polynesian navigators. A version of this paper, which was presented at the Annual General Meeting of the Australian Institute of Navigation in Sydney on 10 and 11 October 1969, has been published in Navigation (Sydney).
