About the Event
Nicola Edwards shared the remarkable story of her participation in the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race, an 11-month circumnavigation covering almost 42,000 nautical miles. Her presentation took audiences behind the scenes of life aboard a 70-foot racing yacht, from enduring storms and long periods without wind to competing in the Sydney to Hobart Yacht Race. Told with honesty and humour, Nicola’s account offered a compelling insight into the physical demands, personal challenges and unforgettable experiences of sailing around the world.
