Stuart Robert Glass was a Canadian adventurer and yachtsman killed by the Khmer Rouge in August 1978 while sailing a little yacht named "Foxy Lady" through Cambodian waters. One of nine "Western" yachtsmen known to have been seized by the Democratic Kampuchean regime, between April and November 1978. He was the sole Canadian victim of the 1975-79 Cambodian genocide. ==Early life== Stuart Robert Glass was born in London, England on June 25, 1951. At the age of five he moved with his family to Richmond, British Columbia, Canada.〔Foxy Lady: Truth, Memory and the Death of Western Yachtsmen in Democratic Kampuchea. By David Kattenburg. The Key Publishing, Toronto. March 2011〕 From an early age Stuart loved adventure. After completing his tenth grade of high school, Stuart worked for a while in Vancouver and then traveled to London to live and work. Less conventional adventures beckoned. Stuart smuggled Moroccan hashish into the UK on three occasions in 1972 and 1973. On the third of these, together with his girlfriend and two other companions, Stuart was arrested at UK customs. Following a six-month term at Wormwood Scrubs prison, he and his female companion—the two now married—navigated the Hippie Trail〔Magic Bus: On the Hippie Trail from Istanbul to India. New York; Ig Publishing, 2009. http://www.rorymaclean.com/books/magicbus.htm〕 to New Delhi, and from there flew to Australia.
