Sea Kayaking Round Ireland Film Screens Tonight in Cork

9th November 2015

This summer veteran kayakers Jon Hynes and Sean Cahill decided to challenge themselves with the ultimate Irish adventure. As Afloat.ie reported at the time the plucky pair committed to kayak 1500km around the entire island of Ireland. All the while battling atrocious winds, heavy swells and treacherous conditions in one of the worst Summers ireland has seen in years.

To help others planning their own adventure, a documentary was made of the journey which is now screening in The Rising Sons Brewery, Cork City on Monday tonight November 9th at 8pm.

At all screenings, they are holding a fundraiser for local charities. The people of Ireland made the journey possible and Jon and Sean would like to repay them in whatever way possible.
