The ships of Woodes Rogers’ expedition experience a difficult interoceanic passage; they are forced to almost 62° South latitude, which, according to Rogers, "for ought we know is the furthest that any one has yet been to the southward". (Bradley, Peter (1999). British Maritime Enterprise in the New World: From the Late Fifteenth to the Mid-eighteenth Century. Edwin Mellen Press.)
At their furthest south, they are closer to as-yet-undiscovered Antarctica than to South America.
