19 crew stake to the seas for lifeboat fundraiser
A fleet of 19 privately-owned inflatable ribs from across the southern coast, with up to 100 people on board, left Kinsale Harbour in Co Cork in the early morning bound for Aberystwyth in Wales as part of the fourth annual Rib Run for the Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI).
Event organiser Ronan Twomey, who was crewing one of the boats with his wife Ger, said he was delighted with the turn out.
