Thread: who is the mightiest mariner?
Iam currntly reading the silmarillion and i have one question so far, ive read somemore after it like 10 pages but it didnt explain, on page 114 just before chaptor twelve it says save the mightiest mariner of song, it doesnt say who that is, correct me if im wrong though maybe somehow i missed it i was thinking it could be cirdan shipwright?
This should not be something revealed in any Tolkien forum in my opinion (to someone on his or her first reading I mean).
I would suggest that you first absorb and enjoy the book

I could tell you if you really want to know, but like Galin said, I think you should maybe read the rest of the book first because the answer is in there. You might enjoy it more that way instead of having someone just tell you.
Agreed! and I added 'enjoy' to my earlier post due to Tinúviel's response, as you surely will
Okay! 
After you finish The Silmarillion Maroc, how about giving us your take on the answer to your question as well as your reasoning.
It's not like there are many shipwraiths mentioned anyway: there're only nine.
