An issue with facing storms, of any size at sea, is that the tremendous size & ferocity of the waves cannot be truly captured. You have to be there, in it, facing it, dealing with it, to have any real appreciation of the same. I got lucky when I was a young guy of 24, & gained crew selection on an American sloop, called Awahnee, (62 ft) for a circumnavigation of Antarctica. We got hit with a mighty hurricane off the SE Coast of the Continent (Enderby Land) at 65 deg South. The winds got to 104 knots with waves of some 90 ft. We were too damn busy to be scared, but it was surely exhilarating. We had a tiny, bullet proof, storm jib up, & towed a drogue with 7 or 8 car tires attached to our stern. Nothing too fancy by todays standards, but that's how it was back in 1971. The whole 7 month experience helped shape me to the person I am today...now 74!!

Beautiful.....Reminds me of my youth, sailing the stormy North Atlantic Ocean, up North, around the Polar Circle.

Thanks for sharing your experiences. You have a great smile.

I saved this to my favorites. I have sailed on tankers and container ships and a lot of tiny sailboats and this scared me. But once you are in it there is no time to be scared. I keep thinking there are 7 billion people on the planet and only a tiny few who have been in a hurricane in a square rigger. or around the horn. Thumbs up- I subscribed.

Don't kid yourself. There's plenty of time to scared, especially when something breaks, or otherwise goes wrong, which it often does.

I like that kind of rough water sailing we had many days like on Lake Superior Canada

Amazing ! Thanks for posting it !

Cool nice Navegation ,I have passed Cape Horn 5 times it has really touched me with huge waves several times and only once like a cup of milk it is really beautiful to sail through the south of Chile, I am Chilean and I saw the sailboat it brought back memories that are in my retina of the beautiful places and that immensity of the Pacific Ocean

Great footage,Judith! Thanks for posting this......

Hi Hubert! Thats a long time ago! How are you doing? These are great memories!

Looks like she's riding out those conditions very well 👍

BarkEuropa, I recognised her at once. Did the same trip in 2009. I see the extra topsail is set and I guess the ship has Tristan da Cunha behind her already. Warm rememberings and thumps up for trainees and professional crew. Great!!

That is awesome, I would've loved being on that ship, look at how beautiful the ocean is when it's swelled up.

We in the Navy had to stay inside our modern ships during typhoons. Those in tall ships had no choice but to be out on deck, or climbing the masts, during storms to keep from sinking.

Gorgeous Wx. Love it.

Hello Captain.. 65 Knot cruising congratulations on an excellent trip. Greetings from Antalya to all of you. ⛵😊👍

13.33 she is alive. Everyone should experience this.

Nice video, I really enjoy it. All the ropes on the sides remind me the Black Pearl of the Pirates of the Caribbiean.

Very nice experience...! Congratulations...! From Santa Catarina, Brazil...!

Wonderful!!!!

Look at her face at 6:46 - this is how the really tough guys look like! And the elder people below deck are pretty brave too if you consider, that they have chosen to sail around Cape Horn! Sailing such a ship in a force 12 gale brings people to the point, where they have to fight for their lives. There is no place for fear, if you have to go up into the rigging to reef the sails. I really admire these people for their bravery.

Hi Skaatje, if you're travelling by an airliner or a cruise ship, there isn't much you can do in an emergency situation. But aboard an old sailing ship the situation is different, especially, while sailing around Cape Horn. Every minute it can happen, that the captain calls for all hands on deck and all these elder people, who are (as I understand) all very experienced sailors, will be there and help saving the ship. They won't worry about getting wet and cold and I'm pretty sure, that they would even climb up into the rigging, if necessary. I have nothing else, but the highest respect for people, who are sailing around the world.

Impressive video for strong people!

Very nice ship, very stable.

Hats off to crew, captain and ship. Even an old powerboater can appreciate this. Salty.

I was just a boy crossing the Atlantic on a Liberty ship in the 50s. During one storm this ship's nose would submerge in the troughs and point way up near the crests. It's hard for videos to capture the size and motion of waves but this one comes pretty close.

Very nice !

Glad you showed the rig and the wake.Nice to have had a still of the barque from a distance. Will look elsewhere for a picture of her. Many thanks for persevering with the wind and spume. For black and white pictures see Eric Newby's record of his trip on the Moshulu: Belfast to South Australia and back to Cork just before WW 2 . " The Great Grain Race".

Moshulu was docked at South Street Museum, NYC in the early seventies without rigging as an exhibit. She was then towed to Phillidelphia, PA and turned into a floating restaurant for awhile and was destroyed by a fire. Seen briefly as a prop in Godfaather II.

@@edmondmcdowell9690 Yes. For Moshulu there is/was much to be seen on Google of what I thought was her present berth. Strange how many sailing boats were destroyed while docked . They almost lost the Cutty Sark that way.

Superb footage and editing. For me the first filming which actually captures the scale of very large seas. Congratulations on your filming and wild life experience...

Very nice clear video filming with natural sounds of stormy sea waves and heavy winds you are all brave and fearlessnessly inside wooden ship God may protect and safely be reached to your destination.

Beautifull

The perfect storm, from the movie, my house was washed out to sea, while we were in it, luckily we escaped out the door before it completely tore apart. 1991, Marshfield, Massachusettes, Brandt rock, beautiful little house, right on the seawall. Only thing left was the foundation and the only thing in it was our king sized bed,lol, which must've weighed a ton.

Thank you!

Damn I have seen waves like that in the Atlantic

Looks like my kinda fun, where do I sign up? I'm 64 but tough as whale bone.

Scary!

Let’s see more of this crew and vessel please

Wowwwww

What catagory hurricane were you in???

What is the name of the ship?

Where was it ?!

"Perfect" is right. You're running off under reduced sail, no big seas breaking aboard, the motion is moderate enough to cook, eat and walk around, below without having to constantly hang on to something with one, or both hands and don't seem especially uncomfortable. That's exactly the kind of storm most offshore sailors would like to encounter, if we have to encounter one at all. That's not to take anything away from skill required to be be that comfortable, but having made a few offshore passages myself, they can be considerably less pleasant that what is shown here. Obviously attempting to make headway to windward would be an entirely different story. One good thing about the square rig, it tends to be relatively comfortable off the wind. One bad thing about the square rig, it's almost impossible to make headway to windward.

Hi, Basil. I totally agree. You have it nailed. Please check my comments, as well.

Those old sailing ships ride out weather better the further you are from shore. Sinc3 their entire strategy for dealing with heavy seas is different from modern commercial power ships they actually ride seas better in many ways....working WITH the wind and seas instead of beating into the waves...There is a synergy of wind,waves, wood, and will power

Looks amazing, was that 52 knots of wind? Sorry was 68 knots wow.

Wow

Based on the scenes below deck, they seem to be comfortable enough. As you're no doubt aware, insufficient sail, when off the wind tends to create its own set of dangers. They seem to have jacklines rigged for harnesses, so as long as they were clipped in they were okay. Obviously that sail combination is satisfactory for the conditions. Any less and they'd be wallowing and at risk of being pooped. Having experienced just that, with the helmsman thrown into wheel, with serious damage to the binnacle and steering, it ain't fun

Most of them are sailors themselves. The oldest one on board (the one in the yellow raincoat) had even circumnavigated the world 7 times! But I guess it was mainly because the trip was quiet expensive and laster 2 months. So mostly retired people could effort it and take the time of.

Some look frail below deck, while steadying themselves by holding on to benches and rails. Only the camera is steady, the rolling motion of the ship appears to make breakfast a wild ride.
