What is the latest news on the project to build a replica of the shannon turf boats. I would like to see what those old boats looked like. Recently saw a painting of Beagh Castle Limerick dated 1800 and the boats there were almost identical to Galway hookers, but had a straight stem. | |

Have spent weeks trying to find Currach Plans to build one as a gift to my father (Family originate from Inis Oirr and grandfather was harbor master in Galway for many years). If anyone has accurate and detailed plans and materials it would be greatly appreciated. sp_conneely@hotmail.com |

I have just watched a programme about the Currach boat, and I love the shape and look of her. Can I obtain full plans so I can arrange to build one for myself and my sons please. What is the origin of the design. She sits very proud of the water and has great bouyancy. Could she possibly have a Viking heritage down the line? Also can I rig her for a sail? Really excited Sarah |

Hello there, Im a therapist on a drug rehab in Vienna, building a currach with my clients. Maybe you are interested in watching: http://aktivierung-517.blogspot.com Soon we will make the skin. I want to ask you, if I can use Bitumen instead of Tar. Tar is hard to find here. greetings |

You have a great site and wonderful program. As a new rower it is fascinating to learn the heritage of these great boats. I got to row in Warrenpoint this August and hope to visit for a row in the mighty west. I love Calre and greatly enjoyed my ride to the Aran Islands out of Doolin and the great music at O'Connor's. The Albany Irish Rowing Club sends their warm regards. let me know if you'd like a link to any of the blog posts we put up. |

Looking for Currach designs and plans to use for a project with at-risk high schoolers. The whole project will also be tied into the story of St. Brendan and his trip. Any info would be great. | |
