Customer Reviews

One of the best books on singlehanded sailing

This is my favorite book by a singledhanded sailor. There's nothing flashy about the author or the story, but by the end of the book you feel like you really know the author and something of what a singlehanded ocean crossing would be like.

A must read for any sailor

I have never had an interest in racing until I read, "The Moonshine Logs." This is an honest look at one man alone on the oceans of the world. Francis Stokes is not a superman, he is human and he tells you so. This book made me feel that I was out there in the races with the author and I loved being there. I have read it several times and intend to read it several more times. It has found a permanent home on my boat's bookshelf.
