I love “Sailing Alone Around the World” by Joshua Slocum. He was the first to do so. I always wanted to build a replica of his boat (plans are available) and do some solo sailing, but maybe not around the world.

His boat is famous for being balanced in its sailing characteristics -- holds course without him at the helm.
