I have thought about doing this a few times to be honest! Would be perfect to do it now with fuel prices where they are!!

Done round Ireland number of times in various Ribs and ready for another boozy cruise in 2021.

Once you have a plan and dates, please advise.

I’d be interested, subject to the usual work/life complications.
Had been hoping to get some of the way around in May, we’ll see....

We have been thinking of this as a possible record run in the Buzzi.

We would like to chat with some locals to plan good fuel stops for the run

i'd love to do it, but not in my 4.8M, however i'd happily join in for the leg around Hook Head, you then have the choice of Kilmore Quay for stops and fuel or Dunmore East
