Youghal Harbour. This remarkable floating sculpture greets all mariners at the entrance to the harbour. A tribute to the legendary film Mobey Dick made here with Gregory Peck.

Arrived Youghal at 4.15pm. We put the banners out, got the dinghy pumped up and went ashore for dinner. Tobin was glad to get ashore. We asked a local fisherman to bring him in first while we got the sails stowed.T.J. O'Brien traveled here from Clonmel to meet me and brought some goodies for Tobin helped me get to Tescos
