    The Irish Naval Service's newest and largest ship, the L.E. Samuel Beckett paid a visit to Galway this weekend for the first time. Just a few pics.

    Saw it down the docks but it never clicked that it was the new ship. Nice snaps thanks.

    Slightly disappointed by the lack of a pair of furry dice on the bridge, but otherwise really enjoyed visiting the ship with my daughter.

    Hate the name but a lovely ship, new car smell on the bridge and everything. Surprisingly poor view from the captains chair or anywhere on the bridge really, couldn't see out the way you would on other ships, I suppose its all on the screens. Surprised to see the bridge running Windows 7 aswell, and a load of civilians clicking away through some complex looking menus on the computers...

    Great pics btw OP.
