Storm in the Drake Passage



Uploaded by: xeniacolours
Video Description:
This video was taken on board a Russian vessel crossing the Drake Passage between Ushuaia (Argentina) and the Antarctic Peninsula. The Drake Passage is known as the roughest sea on earth with severe storms almost at any times and extremely huge waves. We were hit by a storm sailing north that lasted two days with 14m waves.

Argentinian cartography calls it "Pasaje De Drake" (Drake's Passage), while chilean cartography calls it "Paso Drake" (Drake Pass).
The real starting point of Drake Pass is not in Ushuaia, but in Cabo De Hornos (Cape Horn), Chile. Its basicaly a straight line between Cape Horn and Shetland Islands in Antartica, about 800 kilometers. Ushuaia is located inside the Beagle Channel, so maybe you tried to say you "sailed from" Ush

you wouldnt want to be sea sick when those kind of waves hit you, trust me. it would be the worst experience in your life, even if you had both your balls cut off with a blunt knife (maybe not that extreme, but you know what i mean).
