Local resident Geoff Coop recounts his incident packed crossing of the Atlantic as skipper of a small sailing boat with 3 friends. Told with consummate skill and with the lightest of touch this is a story to delight everyone, boatie or not. Nothing technical, simply an amusing yet thought provoking story of 4 fifty-plus year olds having an unexpected Boy’s Own adventure. Storm, sea monsters, the scourge of the Doldrums and a modern Marie Celeste - yes they are all there. Not to be missed.

Geoff's story will be followed by a classic film of seafaring adventures in Nelson's day. The very small entrance fee will be donated to Rotary Shelterbox.
