Third Talk 2020

Portsmouth-raised Tony Curphey and his trusted yacht Nicola Deux, a Nicholson 32, are currently at Paynes boatyard on Thorney Island, having returned to Emsworth in May last year after 308 days at sea alone.

Tony completed the 30,000 mile journey as part of the Long Route circumnavigation - the sister non-competitive event of the Golden Globe Race. He set a record for the oldest person to complete a circumnavigation.

The bar opens at 18:15 with the talk starting at 19:00. Afterwards there will be an American Supper for those who want to stay. Each attendee brings enough food for a meal which is then put out to share. Would those whose surnames begin with the letters between L to Z please bring a savory dish and Those with surnames with the initial letters A to K please bring a dessert, This will, hopefully, balance the menu.

If you are coming please book. There is no charge but it helps if we know how many are coming.
