I read a bunch of disaster stories in La Coruna (it was in fact a book solely dedicated to the subject!), and it took me five days to recover and forget them before I could sail again!
Sometimes they are useful to learn about how the crew handled the situation, but more often than not, they just stop you from sailing!!
I've met quite a few people who are real 'sail geeks' - They read absolutely everything - So much so they are an expert on every single topic - But, with that, they are utterly paralyzed with fear because of it!
