ElM, the Maoris/Polynesians went sailing in a big way. They started from Taiwan, colonized Japan, all across the mid Pacific ocean, all the way to Easter Island then probably on to Chile, where they found a good supply of dinner [native Chileans] and women to take into their boats when the local yokels started to gang up, fight back, and they headed back to Easter Island. That's how the DNA got there from Chile [according to my extensive scientific research which I just made up]. They also sailed up to Hawaii and down to New Zealand. It is very unlikely that Chileans [or other south Americans] were doing much in the way of sea transport. Polynesians have a proven track record of impressive proportions which stemmed from Taiwan. Melanesians and aborigines originated from earlier migrations during the previous glaciation. Polynesians did their big travels in the last couple of thousand years.

Maori and Japanese language are so similar that they have obviously come from the same ancestry. The migrations have been so extensive and so quick over the last 800 and couple of thousand years that linguistic changes have not been huge.

The west coast of south America is not conducive to canoe culture with there being nowhere to go other than possible fishing just around the coast. The east coast of Asia is absolutely full of islands with plenty of opportunity and reason for the sailing culture to get going.
