Will Sofrin is an accomplished public speaker known for bringing history and craftsmanship to life with energy, clarity, and a storyteller’s instinct. He has delivered engaging presentations around the world, with audiences in England, Australia, and throughout the United States. His talks have been featured at leading institutions such as the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron in Brisbane, the National Museum of the Royal Navy in Portsmouth, the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, the South Street Seaport in New York City, the New Bedford Whaling Museum in Massachusetts, and the Mariners Museum in Newport News.

​

Will is widely recognized for his ability to connect with any audience, whether he is speaking in a museum, a school auditorium, a private club, or a large conference hall. His presentations weave together history, design, seamanship, and personal experience in a style that is engaging, fast paced, and memorable.

​

He is now preparing to launch a major new speaking program tied to his forthcoming book on the USCGC Eagle. This talk goes beyond a traditional lecture and is built as a large format multimedia experience, featuring never before released film footage, rare archival imagery, shipboard audio, and modern high resolution video captured on Eagle’s recent voyages. Will pairs this material with dynamic live narration that moves fluidly between history, personal stories, technical insight, and behind the scenes moments from the ship’s eight decades of service. The result is an immersive event designed to make audiences feel as if they are stepping aboard Eagle themselves. Ideal for museums, maritime institutions, yacht clubs, universities, and public programs, the presentation delivers a vivid, high energy experience that brings one of America’s most remarkable ships to life in a way few have ever seen.
