Become a Friend of the Boyne Currach Heritage Group....

The Boyne Currach Heritage Group is a voluntary group of people intrigued with Ireland's maritime traditions, from its ancient past to its ever evolving future.
Here at the National Boyne Currach Centre, we aim to preserve the cultural history of leather boats, both by experimental Maritime Archaeology and modernising the ever expanding currach methods used for racing around the world.
Our aims are aspirational and we see currach making as a way to engage with similar minded people, be it through language, crafts or physically involved in the maintenance and use of the boats.
Since our foundation, we have made great inroads to the question of how Stone Age mariners crossed the seas in wicker currachs, clad with leather, sewn only with rawhide and sailed using vellum sails. Our aspirations to return across the seas in a woven ship has come closer to a reality with your support we can progress with our efforts to turning our aspirations into a reality.
