One unforgettable Irish cruise is the Carrickcraft. It is a company owned fleet of two to twelve berthing capacity cruisers that can be rented by tourists and locals alike that are looking for a boating journey within Ireland (for a span of 3 to 14 days).

Manning the cruiser entails no special skills; the only requirement is that you should be at least 21 years of age to manage the craft.
The Cruise
The Roscommon class has a 10 berthing capacity with five double cabins, a saloon, a large galley with two ovens, 3 toilets and a shower. It also has an aft sundeck where you can pass the time as you cruise by the different locations. The route of the cruise will be from the Banagher marina, passing by numerous quaint towns, such as Terryglass, that has award winning pubs and restaurants. Killaloe and Ballina are on the itinerary, which is a place of historical interest. You can also head to Clonmacnoise, a famous tourist attraction. The fun part in this Carrickcraft cruise is that you own your time. You can stay in one place as long as you are having fun, without the possibility of being left behind.
