Outrigger Canoe Racing At Seaport’s Hawaii Day

In honor of Team Hawaii’s participation in the Liberty World Challenge Outrigger Championship in New York Harbor on Saturday, the Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau will present Hawaiian-themed events at South Street Seaport Thursday through Saturday.

Team Hawaii — the men’s and women’s all-star teams of outrigger canoe paddlers from Hawaii’s four main islands — will discuss outrigger paddling and the history of their sport. (The teams are pictured above, at Lanikai Beach, Oahu.)
