lamahahave: fish with flaming torches for flying fish.
(sounds pretty fun)

I didn't find "fakateletele" either in the Tuvaluan dictionary, but Tuvaluans use it. From the Tokelauan dictionary: Fakateletele: to sail for pleasure. I also picked up a Nukuoro lexicon recently for a few Euros. It has "hagadeledele", which has pretty much the same meaning.
