Sailing off of Cape Horn

Here's a video clip from my trip around the world. Here we are running in the Southern Ocean off of Cape Horn, flying only the tiny storm jib. Watch the horizon.

that's not the Horn, not even close

[bobanero]

This video was made about 4 hours after we passed Cape Horn, so we were probably 30-40 miles away, on our way towards Falkland Islands. It was a pretty good day, weatherwise. Another boat came through a couple days earlier and got knocked down. We were very lucky.
