Here's a book worth a look:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/1574090216/qid=1087696717/sr=ka-3/ref=pd_ka_3/104-4133201-2939912
Bernard Moitessier's "A Sea Vagabond's Story"----you'll realize all you need is a wristwatch and a can opener and maybe a candle. (Oh, a chart--thing with pictures and lines on it).
good luck Dave
