Polynesian Odyssey

[Bertrand FERCOT]

Last Saturday evening on the European TV Chanel "ARTE " was a very interesting documentary about the Polynesian Odyssey with a short participation of James Wharram.
There are a lot of beautiful traditional Polynesian boats and explanations of how they  reached all the Polynesian islands. Also a few about Eric de Bisschop (who inspired James Wharram).

This documentary will be passed again next 31 March in the morning and it's possible to look at it on the web during 8 days in French at :

and in German  "Die polynesische Odyssee" :
