CAPE HORN is the WORST Place in The World to go sailing. Just sayin'
EDIT: The Transit from Australia/New Zeeland..IE: The
Southern Ocean to Cape Horn is also Most Unpleasant. Once you round Cape Horn..(heading East..then North) things are definitely looking better.
BTW: Heading WEST around Cape Horn is ..well .... Captain Bligh, of the BOUNTY tried that for
months..and finally turned around and went East to get to the Pacific.
BI is neither sailing West or East..he's sailing South...crosswise to the wind and current. I tip my cocktail to him.
NB
