    That is a class video. I just came accross your channel this morning when I spotted our video of the Foynes railway work. I got a Mini4 pro myself for pottering around with and I can appreciate the work you have put into these. So far I have only covered a few ships on the Shannon Estuary but its great. Your coverage of the construction sites is brilliant. Hope you are getting business with it

      Thanks for that. Nope just a meagre few bob from google adsense and some kind contributions from viewers. That helps cover some of the costs - insurance , music licensing etc That being said , not in it for the money , just a cool hobby to have , and nice that some folk appreciate your work.

    Fascinating, I've seen a few channels in the U.S doing videos like this, very nice indeed. Anyway, now they've got the vessels...... they'll need to pay sailors a decent salary if they want any crew 👍

    Went from a fleet of 9 ships to not being able to crew 4 ships, we retired 3 ships over the course of a weekend and now we buy 2nd hand not fit for purpose boats that cant go further than 22km from the coast

    Impressive! And by any chance would you have any video of the boat that delivered 'Big Lift' to its owners? 😉

    It seems bizarre to me that they did not just sail it back. It also seems counter intuitive to buy a boat that you can't staff.

      They're inland patrol.vessels , they can't be used out in the Atlantic. They will patrol close to shore and in the irish sea only .

      @@dronehawk Issue is they still can't staff a single boat. Now they have another one? Seems to be a pointless waste of money to me. If you are going to invest in defence either go for it or don't. Don't half ass it.

      ​@@lukewoodside9420 The crew required to man 1 offshhore patrol vessel can man both of these inshore patrol vessels. They obviously can man at least 1 ship considering they are about to send an OPV on an overseas mission otherwise who's sailing it??🤔

    The 2 new boats are river boats. No use at sea and they have no engines... wtf.
