Paw Paw - Log Day 105: "Land Ahoy" - Tahiti



Words to describe today would include: Quiet, slow, overcast, dull, hot, humid. Words to describe tonight would include: Peaceful, slow, clear, bright, cool, breezy.

The highlight, however, was "land ahoy" at around 1700 - Tahiti, with her towering mountain peaks, was visible at roughly 60NM out - Stunning! Of course this created great excitement, not only on Paw Paw, but also on Into the Blue, who hadn't noticed until we hailed them on the VHF to let them know, since they were a few miles behind us.

Tonight though, guided by a full moon, we inch very slowly towards land, but at least we don't have the engines running!
