Gary Dierking on a Sail About
Posted by on 08/23 at 07:29 PM
Gary Dierking, the New Zealand based author of Building Outrigger Sailing Canoes and one of the primary nodes of modern appreciation and adoption of ancient Pacific canoe forms, is back in Fiji, doing his delightful version of backpacking/cruising - which entails flying to an island of your choice and building a small, sailing magic carpet, using indigenous material when possible, and where that fails, ship the epoxy ahead. Then sail about, soak up the inimitable island culture, and as a sort of "balance of payment", leave the canoe. A creative alternative to Carnival Cruise Lines, IMHO.
