Join us for a special presentation and Sundowner with Greg Nancarrow.

Since UWA he has worked mainly in the private sector in mining, oil and gas, defence - anywhere a smart, knowledgeable, technical specialist can make a difference.

This talk will be about Greg's passion - submarines.  Specifically Australian submarines which he has been involved with since the early 2000s. 

Greg will delve into some of the details of their design, acoustic issues and outline why they are so expensive to build and operate.
