Youghal’s long-awaited harbour pontoon is now open for business in what’s expected to be a major boost for the East Cork town.
Mooring fees are €10 per day or €25 a week, applicable to all users — whether casual, commercial or sailing club members.
Preliminary rules for users have been posted on the pontoon, and the necessary key fobs are available from Youghal Town Hall.
There was some confusion last month over the status of the facility, which was installed in early May but without an official opening date, prompting concern among some boaters.
Meanwhile, Youghal’s first full-time harbour master is expected to take up their role next month, as previously reported on Afloat.ie.
