Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars A great book for anyone who laughs at other's misfortunes.   August 25, 2001
 24 out of 24 found this review helpful

This book is a compilation of "Confessions", stories sent in to Yachting Monthly magazine by it's readers, documenting their most amusing cock-ups whilst sailing. Perfect for those readers who always turn to the last page first, or in fact anyone who enjoys a giggle with those people who share their misfortunes in such a wonderfully comic style.

My only gripe is that I couldn't put it down, and finished the book within an hour's train journey - it could do with a few more stories... but fear not, there is a second edition coming out.

I would thoroughly recommend this light reading to anyone who knows how many opportunities for humiliation there are at sea.
