Captain Cook, sailing around the Pacific in the 17th century, found every island inhabited. The people there shared languages, cultures, and a love of navigation. Spread thousands of miles across the open ocean the Polynesians are history's greatest navigators. But could they have discovered the Americas before Columbus? And how is the second most beautiful thing on Earth, the potato, a key to this story? Let's find out.

In this video, we'll look at Polynesian history, Polynesian Navigation, Polynesian boat building, and all things Polynesian. The history of Polynesia is fascinating and interest in it has spiked over the last few decades due to voyages upon the Hokule‘a
