Dusting off is perhaps an understatement because the team of four – namely Ray Limrick, his cousin Michael Limrick, who is the RNLI helm, Ray Cahalane, and Damien Deasy – as well as their coxswain Hannah Connolly, are still working on removing years of varnish to properly restore the vessel that was built specifically for the club.

Gardaí are appealing for witnesses following the destruction of two excavators in a quarry in Bantry last Tuesday afternoon. An Garda Siochana confirmed that the two excavators were extensively damaged by fire at approximately 2pm at a quarry located in the townland of Glandart on the Castledonovan to Bantry road. Last February, The Southern Star reported that an excavator at Kilcoe was maliciously damaged with every conceivable part of the machine broken in an act of criminal damage.
