FRESH EFFORTS TO TRANSFER ARAN FERRIES

Date Published: 13-Apr-2011
A second attempt to load two Aran ferries onto a danish cargo ship at Galway docks will take place today weather permitting.
The boats have been at Galway docks since last Thursday, when a ferry fell from the 'Thor Gitta' freight carrier as it was being hoisted aboard.
The loading of the Aran ferries came to a stop last week, when cables lifting one of the ferries onto the cargo ship snapped plunging it forty feet back into the water.
