There is a tourist club «Azimuth» (Ukraine) in January, 2007, accomplished swimming on the channels of Fiery Earth (Chile). The general extent of route made an about 500 km 7 persons went on two catamarans of Ducky 19. A weather was severe: high wind from the Pacific ocean, accelerated in channels, as in wind-channels. Exhausted permanent fluxes and refluxes, rain which went to on once or twice on a day and temperature of air, about 10 degrees celsius. But the task put in spite of everything was executed.
