Great story, and it's fascinating to see Darwin's diary next to the captain's.
"The same sea filled our decks so deep, that if another had followed it is not difficult to guess the result." Charles Darwin, Beagle Diary, 13 Jan 1833.
Dry laconic understatement here, beautiful in its rhythm and its trusting collusion with the reader. We can picture such a passage in Daniel Defoe or Laurence Sterne.

A most remarkable half hour - sail from Hamburg around Cape Horn in the worst of all weathers, in 1920. Narrated by your cameraman, often filming from aloft.

(Saw a shorter version of this below decks on the Glennlee tall ship at Glasgow's excellent Riverside Museum.)
