What is this ship?

BailMeOut

Took these photos today off Old Head of Kinsale but was not able to zoom into its name. Any idea what it is?

That's her alright.

Wonder if it is being used for the 'Astrid' salvage?

It says she's a buoy-laying vessel. Must be some navigation buoys need attention or replacement.

No. She is doing other work in the area. The Astrid salvage is being carried out by a Bere Island based salvage company.
