OCEALYS Has Arrived In Nuku Hiva

Hello all.

After 16 days and 2,500 miles at sea, we arrived at Taiohae Bay, Nuku
Hiva in the Marquesas on May 5th at 17:30 Zulu. We had a great
crossing with no major incidents or damage to the boat.

We're getting settled in to a different routine in this beautiful, if
not secluded bay. We're surrounded by about 40 other cruising boats!
So much for this being the middle of nowhere. The weather's warm, but
not uncomfortable and we've already begun exploring the village

We'll post a more thorough update in a few days, but we just wanted to
let everyone know we've arrived safely.

You can resume sending emails now that we're not counting on the
connection for critical weather and safety information. We love
hearing from you. Please send text only with no enclosures, images, or
goofy signatures with animated graphics.

More details soon...

The crew aboard Océalys.
