Based on what Deputy Costello has said and the basic opinion on the visuals for the river, one must ask the following question. Based on the losses encountered over the past five years, is it in the right place? Would the vessel be better off located at Grand Canal Dock or somewhere like it where one has access to the DART? There is not great access to where it is located on the quays at the moment. If it is losing that much money surely consideration needs to be given to relocation? Notwithstanding what has been said about the river, for as much as I know about the docks and docklands, one must consider moving the vessel to a different location.
