The Polynesian Voyaging Society crew aboard the wind-powered, traditional voyaging canoe Hōkūle'a is set to arrive in Ketchikan on Saturday, one day later than the crew had planned, and will spend about three days visiting Ketchikan and Saxman this weekend. Ketchikan Indian Community announced Thursday that the Hōkūle'a crew delayed their departure from Wrangell due to rough weather that's expected in the area on Thursday evening and Friday morning. The PVS Hōkūle'a tracker showed that the double-hulled canoe was docked at the Wrangell Harbor on Thursday evening.
