Three members of ECCG headed for Cobh on 12th July for the departure of the Cruise Liner, Ruby Princess.

Meeting at White Point, we made our way along the waterfront to the deep water berth soaking up the carnival atmosphere. Coaches ferried the passengers back to the ship from day trips to locations around the county and beyond, and a brass band played while passengers boarded.

With all aboard, Ruby Princess departed at 6:30pm for her overnight sailing to Dublin, so it was a quick dash around to Roches Point, at the mouth of the harbour, to get a shot or two of the ship passing the light house.
