-- In the northern Hemisphere, there is no land north of about 83.63° north latitude.

That's a radius of about 425 miles all the way around the north Pole. But there's

plenty of ice, so sailing around those latitudes isn't easy.

-- In the Southern Hemisphere, there is no land from about 55.97° to 61° south latitude ...

a gap of almost 350 miles ... except for the tiny South Orkney Islands which occupy less

than 15 miles in that gap.
