Study to Explore Possible Expansion of Fenit Harbour
#FenitExpansion? - A feasibility study to explore the possible expansion of Fenit Harbour is to carried out next year according to Radio Kerry.
Kerry County Council will spend almost €1 million in 2017 on the operation and promotion of the harbour. This includes staff costs and maintenance of the pier, marina and lighthouse.
The council says the development of an assembly hall and office by Liebherr Container Cranes consolidates the company’s position in Fenit Harbour.
An example of the crane export trade Afloat.ie reported in 2012 of what was then believed to be the largest ever ship to dock at the port the heavylift ship HHL Valparasio (2010/17,634grt).
The Liberian flagged vessel called to the south-west port to load a pair of ship-to-shore container cranes bound for the US.
