Ocean voyage to Cape Horn, one of the legs of the 1918-built OOSTERSCHELDE's circumnavigation in 1996-1998. She left Tauranga (NZ) on Oct 22nd 1997 and arrived at Cape Horn on Nov 11th 1997.
The ceremony at Cape Horn, on behalf of the Dutch Cap Horniers Foundation, was to commemorate all the sailors who lost their life at this infamous location. The poem read at the occasion is 'Sea-fever' by John  Masefield.
The three-masted topsail schooner is Netherlands' biggest restored sailing ship.
