Currachs

Establishing the Currach Tradition in New London

Darmuid Hanafin of Celtic Cause and Hanafin’s Irish Pub in New London launched the construction of three traditional Irish Rowing Boats. The Currachs were built at The Crocker House on State Street in New London by Master Builder Monty O’Leary from County Kerry with assistance by Lorchan Otway of New York City.
