SPEAKER EVENING - 16 April

Andrew Mayfield talks about life at sea aboard general cargo vessels in the late 70s'. He'll look at ship operations and port & cargo working in the days of papers charts, sextant sights and simple Radar, before containerisation lowered costs by 80% plus and changed seafaring for good. Be prepared for a few salty stories...

Andrew 'ran away to sea' and became a P&O Line officer before a career ashore in general management, consultancy and strategy.
