The "Holy Grounder" went to work immediately after joining the SailCork fleet – a delivery cruise from Dun Laoghaire to East Ferry in May 2008 with Mike Hines as skipper. The skipper and crew were delighted with the performance of the boat – a new age had dawned for sail training in Ireland – the first sailing school to have a boat that was both comfortable and fast – and capable of performing at regattas. A dream realised for SailCork – especially myself – a flagship to be proud of.
After daywork out of East Ferry and a couple of weekends in West Cork "Holy Grounder" was ready to head off on her first big mission – our annual trip to the wonderful Isles of Scilly off the south western tip of Cornwall.
