For hundreds of years ships have been traveling on a trade route from Europe past the Horn to reach the Americas, Oceania, and Asia. I can’t even begin to imagine what it must have been like to ride on one of the old clipper ships approximately 175 years ago! Images spring to my mind of old sailing ships perilously swaying back and forth in the currents. We certainly are fortunate at how far ship engineering has come. Thank goodness for stabilizers!
