The key to singlehanded sailing is planning ahead. You reef early, run for shelter early, and so on. Certainly the auto pilot is your friend, and is invaluable and it gives you time to do things like reefing and making coffee.

Certainly if I was doing a lot of singlehanding I would want to be able to reef from the cockpit, it is so much safer.
