Are you suggesting that we are going to turn into a crowd of "drunken buffoons" and are terrorise the water ways? We plan on cruising through the day, tying up the boat. Having a few drinks, sleeping in our floating accommodation, waking up sober and cruising on again. Whats the problem with that?

Have done a lot stags lately overseas, and price works ends up working the same. But if going be Ireland Carrick is near the top.
woppers wrote: » Thanks skippy! That boda borg sounds like an interesting place. Anyone who is coming on the stag has signed up because we are going to be hiring a boat so I'm afraid that we have to get a boat. I don't think that I will be able to motivate the crowd for paint balling. The last time they all did that they pissed and moaned about it all day I'd be up for it but it wouldn't be much fun on my own! And again, thanks for the water safety tips guys. I plan on bringing everyone home safely.

woppers wrote: » I appreciate your concern ted1. Thanks very much. It's nice to hear a genuine safety message from a qualified professional and not just someone assuming that there are a crowd of drunken buffoons going on a cruise. I have got a sensible head on me so safety will be top priority on the weekend.

adocholiday wrote: » Well I come from that general area. I don't know much about the towns North of Carrick, but Some tips for Carrick itself (personal opinion, others may disagree) - Don't stop at Rooskey or Dromod (South/East of Carrick). Years ago they were great villages to stop for a pint in. Now they're dead with little to nothing going on, although Dromod is a nice scenic village on a good summer's day. - Further South is Lanesboro, a small bit more lively than the 2 villages mentioned but still wouldn't be very much going on. - Carrick is a magnet for stags and hens now, so there will most likely be loads of others there. - There will be many many more males than females in Carrick. It's a stag so that might not be a major issue but just a thing to be aware of. - Carrick is good on a Saturday night. Friday is ok, forget Sunday altogether (unless its a bank holiday). - Main pubs in Carrick are Dunnes bar and Murtaghs. Murtaghs has a late bar upstairs that tends to attract an older crowd. The basement has a nightclub and there is another nightclub at the Landmark hotel. Would have a younger crowd. - There are other pubs in the town that are decent too, again Saturday being the main night. - If you wanted to just stay in Carrick like many do you could do the 'Moon River' cruise. Few hours on the Shannon drinking. That's all I can think of for now
