If you want storage before rounding the Horn it will have to be Uruguay or
Brazil; Argentina does not have a long-term tax-free storage scheme that will let you keep the
boat there more than a few months. I am afraid too many Argentines have abused the system design for nonresidents.
In Uruguay you can consider the Piriapolis dry storage yard (US$ 0.16 per day per square meter with area calculated as
LOA times beam plus one meter).
In Southern
Brazil you can consider leaving it in the
water in Porto Frade, close to Angra, with a good caretaker (hectorveleiros at yahoo dot com dot ar).
I have no idea about
Chile.Hopefully Pinguino can chime in.
