I have always been a curious person when it comes to the scientific world. I subscribe to several journals of medicine and science and am always interested in new studies and experiments. One day it had dawned on me that I had been given so much from the scientific community but I had not given back anything. For a few months now I've been searching for a good starter experiment and I believe that this one is perfect. It may not cure cancer or AIDS or find a new renewable source of energy but it should be an interesting read. There's a rumor that's been going around the Internet recently.

Tomorrow, however, this rookie sailor will embark on a lone, non-stop race around the world a feat that has defeated many more experienced yachtsmen, and remains the seafarer's Holy Grail.

Carried along by delusions of glory and wealth, he has signed himself up for a task far beyond both his own limited yachting capabilities and those of his flimsy, unfinished boat.

Biografia[modifica | modifica sorgente] Commerciante e velista dilettante, decise di partecipare alla Golden Globe Race, regata in solitaria intorno al mondo senza scalo, organizzata sull'onda dell'entusiasmo delle recenti imprese di Francis Chichester.
