Josef K. Sourdust posted:Came to post a link here to the story of Donald Crowhurst. If you don't know it, you should. An amateur sailor decides to take part in an internationally covered round-the-world race. He wants to back out but faces financial ruin if he does. Unable to face the stormy Antarctic seas he decides to dupe people by sending fake positional readings while he circles in the South Atlantic. Then things get out of hand.... The book about this race, A Voyage for Madmen, is excellent. Highly recommended read.
