History of Corrib Cruises |
|
Corrib Cruises, a family company, was founded by John Luskin in 1976. A native of Cong Co. Mayo, John had from a very young age a great love for Lough Corrib and as a young man loved nothing better than a day's fishing on this wonderful lake.
In 1975 John and his wife Kitty while visiting The Isle Of Wight, off the south coast of England were presented with the opportunity of a lifetime. While chatting to some locals, it was brought to his attention that the "Cunard Line", owners of the famous "QE2" were selling the original tenders (lifeboats) of the liner at auction in Sandwich Marina, in Kent. He arrived at the auction house just as the last of the tenders was coming under the hammer. On a whim John purchased the tender for £GBP 10,000.
