The Cahuilla is Manuel’s boat, which allows both him and Maya to navigate around the archipelago easily, doing their shopping in Castro, attending the Feast of the Nazrene on Caguach, and interviewing elderly residents on remote islands about Chilote myths. The boat is named after a mythological dolphin that accompanies a Chilote ghost ship called “Calueche.”
