 Ernest Hemingway His Life and Works
The open sea formed the backdrop for a great literary career and for the enduring Hemingway legend, a legend that some scholars now say is nonsense.
Fuentes was a born seaman who rode out four hurricanes, swam through shark-infested waters to rescue a drowning man and could feel in his bones precisely where the biggest marlin, sailfish and tarpon would be running, or so Hemingway asserted.
In a 1949 article, Hemingway said that his own role on their boat was to hook the prey and then "gradually work him closer and closer and then in to where Gregorio can gaff him, club him and take him onboard." Fuentes was born in the Canary Islands sometime between 1897 and 1899.

 CNN - Salon review: 'The Endurance' and 'A First Rate Tragedy' - December 3, 1998
It was hardly an auspicious start to what would become known as the Heroic Age of exploration.
One of Scott's ice-shelf companions was a young Irish-born seaman named Ernest Shackleton, who suffered immensely during the excursion -- at one point, no longer able to stand, he had to be hauled on a sledge -- and was forced to leave the expedition to recover back in England.
Far from souring him on polar adventure, the Discovery episode only served to whet Shackleton's appetite; he became one of Scott's chief rivals, mounting expeditions of his own in 1908 and 1914, the former nearly achieving the pole and the latter providing one of the hairiest tales of survival and derring-do known to man.
