Hōkūleʻa should not fly the USA flag, nor fly it above the Hawaiian Kingdom flag.

Same kaumaha when they refused to start their trip to Tahiti from Kaho'olawe in the mid 70's. Is this a Hawaiian thing?

It is insulting to fly the American flag on our canoes. Refrain from doing it!

No other flag should be above the Hae Hawai'i; especially NOT the usa flag, which has 1 too many stars, because there is NO TREATY OF ANNEXATION & NO EVIDENCE of "fake50th statehood ".

What does America have to do with the Hokulea? Is the Hokulea under occupation too? No American flag on the Hokulea I say.

Please pull down the flag of occupation. As a standard-bearer for Hawaii and Polynesia you can do better than propagandize for the invalid U.S. claim on Hawaii. Just for the record I am an American and still can see this perspective. Sail on with the Hawaiian flag alone and proud!

It would seem that after a century or three, the Hawai'ian Islands her sovereignty, Aloha.. or no aloha, her Ohana o Mana would be treated with more due regard and reverence,

All American flags have 1 too many stars. END the HOAX of a ficticious annexation to USA, by a U.S. joint resolution instead of a Treaty, as required by International Law. NO TREATY OF ANNEXATION exists.
