Landfall!

Posted on June 8, 2015 by Bob Johnson - SailMail

After 22 days, Charisma made landfall at 1000 local time in Papeete. We're docked at the new marina in downtown Papeete. More later, need to check in and take a shower first!

What a sight!

Entering the harbor.
Happy to be tied up at the dock.
Only one thing left to do!
WooHoo, a passage very much worth toasting!

    Great news - well done Team Charisma. And you could have had another 7 days at sea and still be within your target! Enjoy the baguettes and pain au chocolat.
