Booking a berth for Galway?

5th February 2009

The move is on to bring boats to Galway and organisers want boaters  to form an orderly queue for the best spots in the harbour. There's already been some decent chat about it here on the forum. The upshot is that if you are planning on bringing your boat to Galway for the Volvo Ocean Race Stopover in May then you need to book a berth. Please email [email protected] or [email protected] or see the form here
