Hello..
I also like different type of Sailing Adventure Books. I read "The sailing life" by Bob Bitchin. It is really a good book about sailing life. He is really down to earth and always entertaining in his life. Anybody can recommend me a good books on Sailing Adventure? or real story about sailing adventure?

Stirling Hayden (the 1950's movie star) wrote two books. One is an autobiography, "Wanderer", and the other is a novel. I forget the title.

I would also recommend William McFee. He wrote many novels based on his life as a marine engineer. They are not exactly sailing adventures but are good stories of actual life at sea.

A good read for fiction is A Voyage Toward Vengeance by Jule Miller. As long as there is greed and lust in the sea, there will be piracy!Arrgh
