All Set for Cape Horn

I'm on deck of Vinson as the sun sets in the north west over Argentina. 
We're due to untie in an hour and anchor off the town, before departing
properly at about 3:00.  The timing is so that we can navigate the
kelp-filled channels and Cape Horn in daylight.

We loaded a huge quantity of food today, loading the forepeak, lazerette
and under the floor and spent the day sorting some of the huge variety
of minor issues that always need fixing on a boat.

The days in the Beagle channel were awesome - a combination of Norway
and the Alps with added ice.  Here are a couple of pictures
