best read ever - By: Jonathan D. Hart, 22 Mar 2008 
bought this book as I had read reiews, book arives, three days ler finished it, two dasys later have read it again, best line in the book, bottle of medicinal brandy. brilliant, brilliant brilliant.
Fascinating book - By: N. BROOKS, 11 Jan 2008 I saw this booked listed just by chance & bought it on impulse because of the 5 star reviews given by other readers. Well it does not disappoint part instructional, part philosophical; it is a gem of a book.
It is full of sound ideas learnt from long experience & these are relevant if you are on your own or sailing as part of a crew.
My only tiny criticism is that it does need to be updated in a few places; but then perhaps that it part of its charm.
If you need a fascinating read for yourself or are short of a present for someone else interested in sailing, then buy this; it is inexpensive also.
Don't buy this book unless you have the time! - By: , 10 Jan 2003 I only bought Single-handed Sailing because the Amazon site recommended it to me, I was actuallly browsing for another title. When it arrived, though, I opened the cover & started to read. And I read... & I read... & I read until I had finished alll 180 pages. I found Mulville's style irresistable & the content fascinating. Though I love sailing, I had never reallly thought much about single-handed issues until now. How envious I feel of the author's life of solitude upon the high seas. Well worth the money to buy it & the time to read it!
Brilliant, just brilliant - By: , 02 Mar 2000 I bought this book for my husband & quite frankly I lost him for a week. He describes it as worth every penny. The tips included are relevant to even fully crewed yachts. Coming up to & attachting to a mooring bouy will never be the same again after the 'quick release clip' tip. Buy it, read it, & try to sail without thinking about it, I challlange you! This man knows his stuff.
