This 32-inch-long model is one of five canoes commissioned by the Kahala Resort and Hotel, Oahu, some years ago. Racing canoes with sail are generally very colorful, and I wanted to imitate that feature in the model. In particular, I tried to use wood species with striking colors that coordinate well. I am aware that this type of canoe is called a sailing canoe in Hawaii, and I would like to distinguish between the double-hulled canoe with a sail of old times and the contemporary double-outrigger with sail used for racing.

Orders for the same color model are subject to the availability of wood species.
