Members of the Barrow Branch of Inland Waterways Association of Ireland who cruised from New Ross and Waterford to Carrick-on-Suir Marina
A flotilla of seven cruiser boats from the Barrow Branch of the Inland Waterways Association of Ireland cruised from New Ross and Waterford to Carrick-on-Suir Marina on Friday evening, August 16 to spend the weekend in the town.
The crew were warmly welcomed on arrival by Carrick-on-Suir Development Association (COSDA) representatives Niall Walsh and Maurice Power.
COSDA Chairman Niall Walsh described Carrick Marina as a great asset to the town and pointed out it is possible to travel by boat from Carrick to Lough Erne in county Fermanagh by sailing down to Waterford then up to New Ross and across the Canal to the Shannon River and then all the way up to Lough Erne.
The visitors were very impressed with Carrick Marina and thoroughly enjoyed their two-day visit to the town. It coincided with the launch of the Explore Carrick-on-Suir brand and community day celebration on Saturday, August 17.
