A sailing boat that ran aground during a storm has become an interesting sight for families.
Residents in Malahide, Co Dublin, have been stopping off at the beach to take a look at the sailing boat.
The boat ran aground during the recent stormy weather.
Brian Doyle, a father from Balbriggan, north Dublin, who stopped off to visit the boat with his toddler son, Jay, said: "It’s an interesting sight for the kids.
"They normally only see the boats from afar, so it’s nice to see one up close."
A local sailor said the boat’s moorings had broken in the storm.
A Fingal Council spokesman said: "We have made contact with the owner of the boat and they have made a commitment that it will be removed in the coming days."
