This outrigger canoe was actually in the lobby of the hotel where my wife and I stayed on Maui. I think paddling around in one of these on the ocean would be hard enough. I can't imagine carving one out by hand like they used to. I like my power tools!
The Natives on the West Coast had a power tool to hollow out their canoes... Fire. I'll bet they got it from the Pollinesians which is where the West Coast Natives and the Hawaiians all came from anyway, but that's a whole other story...
