Loop Head Rowing Club Skiff Build with Adrian O’Connor

In a West Clare village called Carrigaholt, a wooden rowing boat called a St. Ayles Skiff is being built by a newly formed Loop Head Rowing Club. The weekly boat build is held every Saturday in Carrigaholt where 16 members of the local community gather to build this boat under the guidence of local shipwright, Stephen Morris. Adrian chats with some of the great people behind this project and also with Breda O’ Driscoll from the Limerick and Clare Education & Training Board who are partnered with the Loop Head Rowing Club. This programme gives you a little insight into a typical Saturday at the Loop Head boat built. Produced and edited by Adrian O’ Connor for RCB Community Radio in Kilkee.
