Opinionated Traveler By David B. Goldman Rounding the Horn Our sleek 60-foot, steel-hulled sloop, the Sauvage, with her crew of four, this Montecito transient and two other paying passengers had been moving along nicely, headed southwest, when the infamous williwaw wind came up and over the mountains to the north and hit us like a hammer.

"In the icy waters where the Atlantic and Pacific oceans meet, fresh king crab is available just a crab pot away" says David Goldman. |

Opinionated Traveler By David B. Goldman Rounding the Horn By David B. Goldman At 9 in the morning on the third day out, with an overcast sky and the air near freezing, the williwaw wind came thundering down the snow-covered mountains of Chilean Patagonia and slammed into us, turning the ocean white with a 50-knot force and sending 14-year-old Nino scrambling forward to take in sail. "This," I said to myself, "is what I came for." |
