On April 23rd I'll be holding a talk and slideshow in London, at the Royal Ocean Racing Club - the historic club which was founded in 1925 as a result of the first ever Fastnet Race, just two years before Tally Ho won it.

I thought I should tell you guys before I share it on all my other social media so you can book tickets if you are interested - I don't think there is a very large capacity. Click the link above to reserve a ticket (Cost - £10).

Hope to see you there!

Restoring Tally Ho

Leo Goolden talks about his restoration of the 1910 Gaff Cutter, TALLY HO TALLY HO is Albert Strange's largest surviving yacht, and the winner of the stormy 1927 Fastnet race. After a colourful career the 47' Cutter was languishing in an obscure corner of the USA, and was in danger of meeting the chainsaw when Leo bought her for £1 and embarked on a complete rebuild.
