I scanned a english translation from the two voyages of Pedro Sarmiento de Gamboa, done by Clements Markham in 1895 for the Hakluyt Society for my own use. Maybe someone will find it useful too, thats why I publish it here. Clements Markham died in 1916, thats why its public domain now. Sarmiento de Gamboa was a famous spanish navigator who tried to build a settlement in the straits of magellan in the years 1581-1590 (which ended in a dramatic loss of ships and lifes).
