Aran Ferries from Doolin or Galway

Passenger ferries to the Aran Islands.

Ferry from Doolin NEWS:

Ennis District Court. Friday June 26th.

Baid Farantoireachta An Chosta Teoranta ,owners of MV Tranquility operated by the O’Brien Family trading as  Doolin Ferry Co   plead guilty to overloading.
172 passengers on a ship permitted to carry 95.
Judge Mary Larkin commented “I wouldn’t like to be on a boat myself if it was overloaded nor would I like to be on a boat that went down.”

This ship has been operated by the O’Brien family for many years and since 2016 by Baid Farantoireachta An Chosta Teoranta which is a company who’s directors seem to be Liam and Erin O’Brien. Companies information office also shows a charge over this ship in favour of AIB bank which may have been satisfied, but there is no filing to suggest that..  Click on  Doolin Pier  for the Irish Daily Mirror story.
