    I stayed at the fantail during this. Such a nice view. I wish I still had the videos I took. This brought back memories. Thank you.

    I was one of the helmsman on this deployment. I trained many sailors who would later become Master Helmsmen! Ask me anything: )

    How long does it take to traverse...? What direction: from Atlantic towards Pacific or from Pacific to Atlantic?

      This was traveling from the Pacific into the Atlantic, including the anchoring at night, approximately 34 hours.

      @@PeglegSailor 34 hours only? Think about how long it took Magellan to find his way through 😆

    Hi! Is it possible for me to use and share this footage on my own youtube page? I share footage from all kind of activities on our ocean. Cargo ships in the 1960s till now, oil rigs, fishing vessels, etc. Of course full credit will be given to the owner of the footage. Looking forward to your reply. Kind regards!

    what are they doing around 2:40 Searching the deck for some lost contact lenses?
    blows my mind how people like Magellan on tiny ships, already quite battered by this point, with extremely inusfficient navigational tools not only got there but found their way through a quite mazy system. And then just adding the likely longest open sea voyage in history til then directly on to it. Finding out that the Pacific is quite a bit larger than anybody thought.
    His constant mutiny problems made it even more unliekely to pull this off.

      They're looking for any debris that might get sucked up into a jet engine. It's called a FOD (Foreign Object Damage) Walk and is done regularly. I'm not a sailor, but I did the same thing on Army helicopter flight lines many times.

      I hope you’re doing alright. Times suck right now, and I absolutely loved Moscow for the five days I stayed there in 2019.

    Just guessing, but it looks like an easterly passage. So, if you're a United States aircraft carrier, "6 acres sovereign U.S. territory, any time, any place", and you could take over B.A. and Santiago without breaking a sweat, why not go round the Horn? Better video.

      It's rough dude. It wouldn't be fun for the escorts.

      The Strait in the winter is a better option than to put ships in possibly chaotic waters. Carriers avoid storms and worsening conditions like the plague.
