Single Handed Sailing Biography's and DVD's

Hi

I was just wondering if anyone has read any Good single handed sailing books or seen any DVD's about single handers, and if they could share the titles, authers etc with the rest of us.
I am particularly interested at compiling a recomended reading list.

Single handed sailing books

Submitted by Pappy Jack on Fri, 08/29/2008 - 03:45.

Hi Ian,

Here is a list of books that I have and I'm sure there must be more: "Sailing Alone Around the World" by Joshua Slocum, "Alone Against The Atlantic" by Gerry Spiess, "Maiden Voyage" by Tania Aebi, any thing by Tristan Jones. The only DVD I have is "With Jean-du Sud Around the World" by Yves Ge'linas which in my opinion is a "must have" for single handed sailing. So there you have it, my list of books and dvd's, I hope this helps.

Fair winds and full sails,

Pappy Jack

Hi Ian,

Here is another one: "Single-Handed Sailing" by Frank Mulville. I haven't read this book but I have read other articles by him and he is good...well worth the time and money.

Fair winds and full sails,

R.Hart Beaver Would appreciate titles and authors on books which discuss shorthanded techiques, not adventures no matter how interesting.
