With few Pacific harbors large and deep enough to accommodate deep keeled ocean cargo ships, lighters were used to transfer goods from the ship to shore.
The lighters were also useful as a quick means of transportation from one village to another. Over decades local boat builders lengthened the boats in order for more passengers and rowers to make interisland trips.
Today, American Samoa stands alone as one of two (Upolu) islands where the custom of lighter transportation evolved into a sport.
These custom built racing machines, some costing as much as US $200,000 are crewed by young village men who row for the prestige and pride of village and family.

Hello everyone, i would like to share my experience on this platform. i have been hearing of Blank Atm for a while and i applied through a few people but i was scammed, not until i found Mr George who saved me from scammers, i got my blank ATM card in 5 days after application and tried the encrypted card in an ATM machine and pos cash store to my greatest surprise i was able to withdraw €3000 and that was the daily rate i applied for in total i have made a withdrawal of €30000. to be honest there is no risk involved the card is not traceable and has an infrared signal that blocks off CCTV during your withdrawals. i just payed my daughters tuition fee and cleared my mortgage debts, i am also richer and started a business that is doing fine. Mr George is really a life saver and he is very genuine. You can contact him with this email address: blankatm402@gmail.com
Best wishes
Keep on working, great job!
