Historic training yacht could sail into Asgard role
The Creidne, owned by the Irish navy, is quietly undergoing a refurbishment at the naval base in Haulbowline, Cork, after years of low-level use by the navy reserve.
When the refit is complete early next year it is intended the yacht will be used by the full-time navy for training in seamanship, but the possibility of her filling in for the Asgard II may also to be considered.
