Eric Bisshop met him and saw his raft Tahiti Nui 2 will

This issue is emphasized as in Inca times and better
thinkers republican ideas that lead to, if Jack Caravedo
Arca operates engenders an aspiration of a Peruvian one
civilian brave launches his raft as ambassador to the
peoples of the Pacific, as a great community, so that the
raft Tangaroa wears a readable name of friendship, for
those people that get to see the Inca sun god goodbye, till
the near dawn.

So prove that Peruvians are capable of achieving as well as

the theory that these expeditions were trying to glimpse

The famous dead calm as a pool were desperate to bring the

October 31 ISLAND NAPUKA come to French Polynesia where

they are greeted by a delegation of high sea islanders in

balsa raft Tangaroa was a great achievement to overcome the
arrival of the Polynesian Kon-tiki its counterpart in the
stricken island reefs Raroia time of 97 days 4 less than
the Kon-Tiki and other expeditions.

Eduardo Monsalve Trujillo would achieve the communication

with Charles the French amateur radio and give notice of
the arrival of the Polynesian Tangaroa raft and the arrival
of helicopters to verify the status of the expedition which
was good.

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

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

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
