There are some things it's good to know when your cruising the Shannon River in Ireland like where to moor, or where you can do your laundry. There are service blocks at many marinas along the river that provide bathrooms, showers and laundry facilities. There's also information on taxis, banks, doctors and churches where available.
Lough key forest park has good mooring at two quays, and at Drum Bridge. The lock at Knockvicar is manned by Padraig Lynch - 079-67011.
