Another vote (also mentioned in old thread) for the book We, the Navigators. There are also a lot of interesting articles on traditional Polynesian and Micronesian seafaring (including navigation) at the Journal of the Polynesian Society hosted by Auckland University: http://www.jps.auckland.ac.nz http://www.jps.auckland.ac.nz
I wrote https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wa_(watercraft) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wa_(watercraft) with another guy a few years ago, it was a front page featured article for awhile and discusses navigation in the same region.
