It’s always nice when the effort you put into an article is matched like-for-like by the subs and designers who put it on the page.  The above pic is from a feature of mine that appears in the latest episode of Outsider magazine, available at newsagents or free with purchases at good outdoor stores nationwide.

Nick Ward, the 70s icon in the pic above, is a survivor of Fastnet ’79, the world’s most infamous yachting disaster. His crew left him for dead – Ward came to in the water amid a near-hurricane, tethered to his boat by a lifeline with a dying crewmate for company. He survived.  The friendships with his crew, understandably, did not.

Outsider has gone from strength to strength in the last year or two and the quality of material is at its apogee lately – it’s a pleasure to work for them, too. Grab it while it’s hot.
