More from the fishing trawler boat FASTNET floundering on Dingle Peninsula.... this time with the camera instead of the phone. It's creepy to see the deck looking so perfect in the sunshine.... and hear the banging of the boat's metal hull on the rocks. For those that missed my reel of 2 days ago: the fuel spill is terrible.
