Years later, a Spanish expedition commanded by brothers Bartolomé and Gonzalo Nodal verified this discovery[1] making in the way also the first circumnavigation of Tierra del Fuego.[33] After this there would be 150 years before the next ship from Spain would traverse the strait.[34] In 1620, one hundred years after European discovery, at least 55 ships had traversed the strait including 23 Spanish, 17 English and 15 Dutch.[35]
