I got it. 3Y0J Bouvet Island 2023, the DxPedition of the year, the second one in the most wanted list, is on my bag. I follow the international team since the departure from Falkland Islands, with sail boat MARAMA. They sailed through the south Atlantic Ocean for 12 days, before drop anchor in an island bay. Bouvet Island lie quite at same latitude of Cape Horn, The extreme south of the Land of Fires, Argentina. Who has pass Cape Horn, like me, knows even durin the austral summer, from 21 december to 21 march, the weather conditions in that latitudes coul be very bad indeed. Here is the boat course.
