    Amazing to see pictures of Paddy Cantwell, the skipper of the Galway Bay. God, these pictures bring back memories!

    I wondered about the name ok but its Naom on the ships bow, thanks for the info so sad to see the condition she is in today we should start a campaign to have her restored and brought back to Galway as a museum.

    ..but the dot is over the m on the bow.

    I might see if I can see where she is now in Dublin and if I can figure out how to, I'll post pics here.

    She is in Dublin port and has not moved from the place where the pictures that were taken of her, go to page 4 of Galway in the past on Galway Ships.com and that is where she is and her condition today more than likely worse as those pics were taken in 2005.
