Storm in the Drake Passage

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.

The energy of the wind can be used so effectively: Have a look at my latest video about the largest wind turbine in the world: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...

Considering how the seas usually are in the Drake Passage, this ship is practically becalmed!

Great video - sometimes you forget what life at sea can really be like. I "sailed" from the Antarctic to the Falkland Islands and then onto Chile in late 1982/early 1983 and I can always remember the tranquility of the Patagonian Channel, but tend to forget the rougher weather...I was always seasick the first 24 hours after leaving port. Thanks for posting.

Nice video. Sorry to disappoint you the wind is not 10 ! The sea isn't that white, so it can't be more then 6.
