 The main aim of this project was the provision of a replacement, higher standard ferry boat to that which had been operated by Castle Cruises for many years on Carlingford Lough between Warrenpoint, Co Down and Omeath, County Louth.
The project also aimed to develop and consolidate existing business links between both locations and to widen the scope of the ferry service for the benefit of local economic and tourism development.
The project therefore involved expanding the traditional ferry service operated by Castle Cruises and the introduction of a more modern,
40–50 seater vessel which complies with health & safety standards and facilitates the operation of the business in all weathers. The ferry is thus a quality operator in the cross border tourist industry between County Down and County Louth.
