Thank you Sudha for great information.. How was the trip? Hope your Drake Passageway crossing was uneventful. Will compare notes when we get back.

Our trip was great.We had great weather;consecutive sunny days.Drake passage was described as "Drake Lake " by ship crew.Many on board had patches ,wristbands and medication for motion sickness.We were lucky to be spared
