Arrived - Fatu Hiva

We are anchored in the Bay of Virgins, Fatu Hiva Marqueses. We arrived just past midnight (using old Galapagos time, no idea what time it is here, but it is dark), having motored the last 12 hours in light winds. The trip took us 17 days and 12 hours and we covered 2,900 miles. We sighted the island of Fatu Hiva about 25 miles out and almost immediately had an escort of dolphins for about 5 miles.

All is well with everyone.... the boat is not moving.
