SHIPWRIGHTS’ LECTURES – WEDNESDAY 19 OCTOBER 2022

The 2022 Annual Shipwrights’ Lectures will be held on Wednesday 19 October 2022 at the MAST Mayflower Studios, Southampton.  2021 saw the Lectures move to their new venue in Southampton City Centre and, despite a reduced post Covid attendance the very favourable feedback indicated the event to be widely regarded as one of the best!

The Lectures programme is designed to inspire and motivate young people engaged in the UK’s £3 billion international position in the super yacht, yacht and boat design and building industry. This year’s Lectures are, as always, free of charge and open to all students at colleges and universities, apprentices and young boatbuilders. College tutors and apprentice managers are encouraged and welcome to attend.  Further details will be distributed when online registration is scheduled to open later this month.

A full house is anticipated after the enforced layoff so early registration is recommended.

In the meantime SAVE THE DATE ! – 19 October 2022
