The Hidden History with the USA - Sailing Majuro and the Marshall Islands [Ep. 176]
In this video, we share the truth behind the U.S. involvement in the Marshall Islands post-WWII. Explore the traditonal Walap, or outrigger canoe, that still races in Majuro today. Watch as we navigate delays waiting for permits to visit the outer atolls, and see how we provision and refuel the boat before setting sail.
