RV Celtic Voyager of the Marine Institute, Ireland s national agency for marine research, development and innovation, has been working in south Dublin Bay this week,
writes Jehan Ashmore.
The 31.4m ship to be replaced next year by a Spanish newbuild, to be named the RV Tom Crean (52.8m), has since the start of this week carried out ship-based training albeit for land-based marine biology students given the lock-down restrictions.
