Society Chairman Capt. Stephen Healy delivers a light-hearted departure from our normal scholarly topics, looking into the nautical-themed names of public houses, near and far, past and present.  We can say, with an absolute degree of confidence, that this is by far and away the most researched talk ever delivered to the Society.  The speaker has spared neither time or personal expense in sampling confirming as many details as humanly possible about the numerous hostelries in his talk, principally of course, through visitation.  Honest!!
