In Close to the Wind Ben reveals the truth behind his awesome achievement. A charming spokesperson off the water, he reveals just how ruthless he is on it. He admits to fierce rivalries, above all with Brazilian Robert Scheidt, who robbed a nineteen-year-old Ben of hold in his first Olympic. From that day Scheidt has been Ben’s nemesis and they have explosively raced head-to-head many times since
