We have traveled over 8000 kilometers, boys... but the fact is that the greatest danger is still ahead.
Herman Watzinger:
[sarcastic]
People?
Thor Heyerdahl:
No: the Raroia Reef. It lies like a wall around the entire island, with sharp coral.
Torstein Raaby:
[worried]
Why didn't you tell us?
Thor Heyerdahl:
[looking Raaby]
It was impossible to know exactly where we would end up.

We have traveled over 8000 miles, -
- Yet it is a fact that the
greatest danger lies ahead.
- People?
- No.
Raroia reef.
There is a wall around the whole island,
with sharp coral.
Why did not you say something?
It was impossible to know
exactly where we would end up.
We can try
to push the exchange rate slightly southward.
And hope to hit Samoa about... 30 days.
- You can believe!
- What options do we have?
We could try to surf over.
Surf?
Yes.
