cape horn cruising--storms...

[newcruiser79]

I've read alot about the south america i know the weather is unpredictable. How bad are the storms? Is it still pretty safe?

Very safe. Have you heard of a modern cruise ship sinking because of a storm, recently? Can it be rough? Sure. Will the ship have a disaster? I will bet the house on that everytime as no.

Best cruise we have ever taken!

We were at Cape Horn a few weeks ago. The sky was overcast, the sea a little choppy and it was windy. It wasn't rough which disappointed some passengers! We had great views of Cape Horn; lots and lots of passengers on the decks to take photos. We were there at least an hour and we stayed on deck the entire time. We heard that on a cruise prior to us, Cape Horn was socked in and they couldn't see it. Overall, there were a couple of days on this cruise with rough seas causing some passengers to be sick. For us, this was our best cruise yet and we want to do it again.
