    Down by the tower would be my pick, near Waterford Crystal then.

    Great Idea.

    Can we use it to pillage New Ross and Kilkenny Town?

    The k-team have had a little fight amongst themselves & have basicly disappeared ..... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

    anyway back to topic!

    I hope this project results in these jobs staying .... I imagine that there is potential to sell these boats to maybe somewhere in Newfoundland or even to Las Vegas or Disney .....

    or if they don't have similar projects already in Scandanavia ... back to Viking homeland!
