There's been lots of press coverage of the '79 Fastnet disaster, but for me the most gripping was the 15 page special in Yachting World. Matthew Sheahan talks very frankly about the events leading up to the death of his father and the decision to abandon the yacht with a crewman left onboard. It's just a chilling read and is reminiscent of the famous climbing book "Touching the Void".
