It means to sail around Cape Horn, Africa. Ships or captains that have completed this challenge are referred to as "Cape Horners". Erroneous! The southernmost point in Africa is the Cape of Good Hope. Cape Horn is the tip of South America, and a much more dangerous passage, even these days.
Ships sailed around the Cape of Good Hope to go from the east coast to the west coast.
