Cape Horn~1-2006

Circumnavigating around South America and Cape Horn is one of the most dangerous nautical passages in the world. Both sailors and passengers fear it because of the treacherous seas, winds, and currents and the many sailing mishaps occurring in these water. The Cape Horn Memorial was inaugurated on December 5th 1992. It was erected in memory of the men of the sea from every nation who lost their lives fighting against the prevails in the vicinity of the legendary Cape Horn and is clearly visible as ships make they way past the Cape.
