    Just wondering what yards would be considered the best in the country for fit out and/or alterations for wooden boats?

    I'm thinking along the lines of general external maintenance but significant internal refit/alterations. Boat is only about 26ft LOA so not a trawler or anything significant.

    If its along the lines of a fishing boat rather than a yacht/cruiser then O'Malley Boats in Achill would be worth a try if your that side of the country.
    They've a small set up but top class workmanship.
    PM if you want their number.
