If you could choose your schedule, how hard would it be to sail your boat around the southern tip of either Africa or South America?
If you read the sailing stories, sailing around the Cape of Good Hope and South Africa is relatively easy, and there are ports there to put into. Sailing around Cape Horn at the tip of South America is another matter. It’s much further south, the storm winds hardly ever stop, and there are few safe places to put into.
Real hard. I have no plasn to climb Mt. McKinley or Mt. Everest either.
