America’s Cup Expert Jack Griffin At BUEI Talks
The Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute’s [BUEI] Talks series is getting set to present “Your Personal Guide to the America’s Cup” with Jack Griffin on Tuesday, May 26, beginning at 7.30pm.
The event poster says, “Jack Griffin is Editor of Cup Experience, a unique newsletter and website dedicated to audience engagement for the America’s Cup. Jack’s book Turning the Tide provides the definitive account of how Oracle Team USA mounted their comeback to defend the America’s Cup in San Francisco.
“Before America’s Cup, Jack worked for 25 years in marketing, sales, and general management for IT and high tech companies in the US and Europe.”
“What brings you to the America’s Cup? You might want to know about the racing, or about the boats and technology. Maybe it’s the tradition that interests you. Or maybe you’re fascinated by the tycoons and the glamour that surround the America’s Cup. Or maybe you’re just curious to know why it’s such a big event.
“Jack will explain all of this and more.”
The presentation will get underway at 7.30pm, with a Sushi Happy Hour to be held at Harbourfront from 5.00pm to 6.30pm, with dinner opening at 6.00pm.
Tickets cost $20 for members and $25 for non-members, and are available by calling 294-0204 or visiting BUEI’s Oceans Gift Shop.
