"OSLO (Reuters) - A replica of the Kon-Tiki balsa raft will sail the Pacific in 2005 to study mounting environmental threats to the oceans since Thor Heyerdahl made his daredevil 1947 voyage, organizers said on Monday." And if anybody is interested, they need a navigator... UPDATE "Efforts to mount a new Kon-Tiki expedition over the Pacific Ocean may be delayed by as much as a year. Organizers have lost funding from sponsors after the tsunami catastrophe in South Asia." http://www.aftenposten.no/english/local/article950071.ece?rfid=rss1.0 [ Edited by: tikigardener on 2005-01-29 15:50 ] |
