Surely not ! I'm pretty sure they would know the water they are sailing on, drunk or not !

Who's boat was it and were the crew OK ?

I noticed in the Courier this week that it's the same vessel that ran aground at the Second Waters in June, whilst attempting to rescue another boat.

I noticed in the Courier this week that it's the same vessel that ran aground at the Second Waters in June, whilst attempting to rescue another boat.

Also note the courier said, twice, that it was an Irish boat. Anyone with an ounce of common sense could see it was a Belfast registered boat making it British!

Surely a boat registered in Belfast is still Irish, the same as a boat from Campbeltown or Oban is Scottish as well as British. For now at least!

any one with any sense would know northern ireland and ireland are two completely different countries and that northern ireland is british hence the reason the b being on the boat symbolises that it is british registered in belfast.

Sorry booboos, but anyone with any sense knows that Belfast is in Ireland. Northern Ireland, yes, but it is still Ireland.
