Fireside conversation – Seven Years at Sea: A Family’s Voyage Around the World
Cost:
Join us at Mansfield Outdoor Centre’s Pine River Café for an inspiring evening of storytelling and connection — fireside spirit included.
Cornelia Manske and Michael Buratynksy will share the remarkable story of turning a bold dream into reality. United by a shared sense of adventure, they spent years planning, building skills, and rebuilding their boat before setting off with their three children to sail around the world.
Over seven years and 35,000 miles, their journey tested their resilience and teamwork through breakdowns, unexpected dangers, and extraordinary cultural encounters. From remote anchorages to vibrant coastal communities, they’ll reflect on the challenges, the growth, and the powerful family bonds forged at sea — a decades-long adventure they now consider one of the most rewarding choices of their lives.
Whether you’re an adventurer at heart, a sailing enthusiast, or someone quietly nurturing a dream of your own, this evening will leave you inspired to chart your own course.
Tickets:
$20 + tax includes entrance to event, a beautiful selection of baked goods and coffee and tea.
