The island is sighted Aratika directed toward Fakarava The Tangaroa raft is showing an inclination to work hard to correct it by moving the point opposite charge. The routines of the raft were cooking in a box fitted on the side outside the cabin door winged raft.
The shifts in the kitchen and the food fresh airing one per day in three shifts. It was always cause for disgust mathous gluttony, which is always sick stomach and his comment is that the food not to eat. They had an outboard motor for emergencies that never served, an engine to generate electricity to be seen at night and for the radio. In the central part of the kitchen was an interesting skylight safely cool to the sharks in October would be a plague that does not alienate them coming to see a huge over 3 meters.
The crew of the raft is a crew of paid and do not share the interests of the Expeditionary Carlos Caravedo Ark are often the places that Charles breadcrumbs on the ears to
hear their bluster of these two sailors, being thrown overboard failure to go to Tahiti but Sydney Australia. I get to sleep with a bag of rice that kept a pistol near the security and canned a higher value, so it will not devoured. These threats and live together for so long would make Charles a prisoner would not let him finally conclude with a book that I tell them for fear of reprisals from these men who just visited him for the rest of his days.
(tangaroa 2) So Carlos Caravedo would make a decision, dangerous but the danger of being thrown overboard or left on a small raft Tangaroa 2 they built for photographing the Tangaroa raft left over planks and drums empty water. Carlos Caravedo anger gradually gradually taking daily water cylinders to make ends meet these days to get to Tahiti horn. Then at night Kauehi where they hear the roar of the sea is so Carlos Caravedo gives the order to pull the Lairs CANDLES AND ADJUST. So gradually move away this terrible roar then you explain that to fall on these reefs were dead men. Carlos Toledo Caravedo and his pilot did not calculate the flow of these seasons that are very powerful reason why divert its course to the vicinity of the island Kauehi.
Also when they reach the vicinity of the same currents Fakarava Pass the divert 8 km from its position south of the said strait from the island Fakarava. They would try to address the current Fakarava Strait, but these currents would carry them along the coastline of the island Fakarava have to fight with this powerful current of these dates as they are far July date and must have crossed this narrow guaras stabilizing the direction of the raft Tangaroa during grueling 24km finally meet Carlos Caravedo Out ordain that ride the coast in huge waves shook the Tangaroa raft and each would try to save his life as he could, clutching what was sure at hand. This was November 18, 1965 last day voyage of 115 days since his departure in Callao, Peru
Throw the waves again and again pulling the raft till moans that a depository in an aspect south beach themselves and kept the raft 26 km 16 ° 22 `south of Rotoava acoderan a beautiful lake side of the raft tired Tangaroa left intact only in He would walk about 2 days till find people who were frightened when they see these bearded.

Great gift for Charles Caravedo and Peru. In lima stolen rolls of photos his former crew which regain follow through and find where they were rebels; also face land reform would keep a few acres that would be of fraud and theft against them. Nearly lost a leg in a motorcycle accident it is almost clear, but a surgical intervention and clarification of the doctor could no longer walk more. Carlos Caravedo be missed in the sun and smeared with honey to improve their simulation recovering the color of their skin after a sting stubborn leg mobility. After running the concerns Fakarava tries to return many times but it was impossible. This is his religious Irma Velazquez 1967 Cortez Church of Santa Anita, Lima, Peru, daughter of Nicholas Velasquez and Eleodora Cortez. She was born September 25, 1945 in Lima, Peru.

It divorce adjusted lived a life of its few resources and projects and supported by friends and family, despite this not without damage to its fledgling economy The 2004 features a letter to the marina to find out the intention of a Norwegian expedition of the Kon-tiki named Tangaroa Even then the Expeditionary Heyerdahl had died in 2002.
Try to cómbense Yabar Camoyano Arebalo and Norwegians themselves and they do not listen.
In front of the line, bursting with rage because the supply of renaming is mocked by the Kon-tiki museum.
Have a great health despite his 86 years in December 2006 and was hospitalized 11 months after brain cancer (presumably by a fall) died on 8 October 2007 at the 86 to 87 years
5 It is therefore a Foreign expeditions Peruvian Expedition Tangaroa achieves the shortest travel time and only 97 days left intact in undamaged mast today waiting on the island of Fakarava. You as 2 dates in the month of October 8 October, a year after the unfortunate loss of Carlos Caravedo Ark Just as the feat of 31st October 1965 to make the trip in French Polynesia 97 days of reaching the island Napuka This is a great example of perseverance Peruvian value indifference, persistence Asia an end to the temporary serenity and generosity to succeed achieving its goal.
