Our Cover

Like his much-travelled an cestor, who sailed thousands of miles in his canoe, the Gilbertese sailor of today is an expert at navigating his slim craft. His outrigger canoe has changed little from the old craft but this one, photo graphed in the lagoon at Bairiki by Bruce Adams, sports a sail of modern fabric.
