Quote from Andrew Herringer:- "I am the current owner of Saoirse along with a good mate Colin Skidmore. We live in Adelaide South Australia and regularly sail Saoirse on the Coorong, Murray River and around St Vincents Gulf, South Australia. We bought her back in 2005 from the gentleman who built her. She had been inside his shed after build for over 10 years only ever sailed twice. Ill health prevented the builderf rom sailing her. He couldnt bring himself to sell her but after 10 years he relinquished. Attatched is a photo taken last year on the coorong in South Austrtalia near the mouth of Australia Longest river, the Murray. As you can see we have changed her paint scheme. She is a fantastic family boat with my young children using her as a platform for catching blue swimmer crabs during the summer months"
