UPDATE OCTOBER 2022
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 21st Oct 2022
No changes except that plans for a deep water harbour near Braymore Point seem well advanced and that it is a development by the Drogheda Port Company
UPDATE SUMMER 2021
Written by Don Thomson 3 | 26th Aug 2021
I reviewed these notes in August 2021. I've added a warning for smaller boats mooring at Fiddlers Quay but that is because, with a 6.5 m boat the mixture of dolphins, tides, springs and fender boards always ended in tears!!
Update 2017 for new pier
Written by Don Thomson | 11th Sep 2017
A new yachting peir has been added on the North side of the harbour outside the dockyard. The text has been edited to indicate this.
UPDATE APRIL 2017
Written by Don Thomson | 21st Apr 2017
Drogheda remains essentially a commercial port which they say is a busy port with no ideal berth for small craft.
Update 2015
Written by dononshytalk | 15th Apr 2015
These notes were reviewed by Don in April 2015. There is still no evidence of dedicated yachting facilities.
