This guy is very well known master navigator all around the Caroline Island. If you don't know nothing about navigating way then you will never hear this well known name.his also known as the leader of the voyage call " saile Mathawoal woal" the sea lane between Guam and Lamotrek atoll and it also include Satawal Island, Piig and West Faiyew. Good to see his picture as I was always hear his name during the school of navigation.
