De regreso a Europa, Bernardo se incorporó en la Escuela Naval durante la estacion de invierno i en las otras hacia viajes a San Petersburgo, Matanzas, en la isla de Cuba i New Orleans. En 1838 una vez rendido satisfactoriamente su exámen de piloto, efectuó un segundo viaje de circunnavegacion, pero esta vez como piloto tercero, i la suerte quiso que fuera en el mismo barco, la Princesa Luisa, i en éste iba también un médico-cirujano encargado de colectar objetos para el Museo de Berlin: era el doctor don Carlos Segeth que desde ese año vivió en Chile i especialmente en Santiago, hasta su muerte, 14 de Diciembre de 1890.
