the quest was brought to guam by master navigator manny sikau, who sails using only the ancient means of navigation--the constellations, water, wind, and the surrounding wildlife. the canoe was heavily damaged during typhoon pongsona, and only recently have repairs been completed. while the craft is seaworthy, the crew is understandably wary of sailing to palau during typhoon season.
