Celebration/28 April 2021
"Filipino Conqueror of the Pacific"
Born in Allen in 1918, ran-away at the age of 12 and in 1934 stowed-away and went to Hawaii. He was 16 years old then. Crossed the Great Pacific Ocean in 1955, alone, from Hawaii back to the Philippines in a self-made 24-foot wooden sailboat he called "Lady Timarau", powered by only two 25-horse powered outboard motors and a canvass sail. On April 25, 1956, he reached Siargao after almost a year of his historic 5000-mile Hawaii-to-Philippines solo voyage. He was reunited with his family in Allen on the 28th as he was escorted by the vessels of the Phil. Navy to Manila. The nation rejoiced Das' incredible feat. Then President Ramon Magsaysay awarded him with the Legion of Honor and the title of The Commodore of the Philippine Navy.
Every 28th day of April we celebrate his bravery and achievement, recognizing him as an honored son of Allen.
