Additional info from comapny website- Cork Harbour Cruises was born out of the love for a boat and a desire to keep it on the water. When Crosshaven natives Karen Cottrell – of Cape Clear Ferries — and Trish Harris heard that the Cailín Óir was being taken off the water, they realised they had to ensure that cruises kept running at Cork Harbour. Cape Clear Ferries supplied the boat and the pair established Cork Harbour Cruises in 2020 (they call it their ‘Happy Covid’ story) to showcase from the water the beautiful and historical locations around Cork Harbour and Crosshaven.
