13th December 2012

#CAT FOR SALE- Killybegs based Sinbad Marine Services have put up for sale the 12m SMS Coastal Cat, a 2010 built specialized survey and workboat completed at the local yard of Mooney Boats.

We've got a favour to ask

More people are reading Afloat.ie than ever thanks to the power of the internet but we're in stormy seas because advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news sites, we haven’t put up a paywall because we want to keep our marine journalism open.

Afloat.ie is Ireland's only full–time marine journalism team and it takes time, money and hard work to produce our content.
