Long-awaited dredging in Courtmacsherry Harbour is being deferred.
As Afloat reported earlier this month, the dredging at the popular West Cork boating harbour had restrictions put in place for visiting boats in June for a planned three to four weeks
The harbour's pontoon was unavailable and the slipway blocked off to allow for the dredging work in the middle of the boating season.
But now Tom Murray, Commodore of Courtmacsherry Harbour Boat Club says the works are deferred to the 8th of August.
"This is good news as all facilities will now be available for the next seven weeks and we look forward to welcoming visiting sailors", Murray told Afloat.
