Hi Michael
I really enjoyed looking at the photos taken by Jeffrey Brownlee,
I can help identify some of the vessels and as an owner of two and caretaker of another one! I would love to get copies of the following if possible, Thank you.

It is indeed Achelous, and is still owned by Des Simmons (my uncle) and is maintained and sailed by me on lough Drumharlow.
Little Phoenix was built by Mahonys of Kingstown Co Dublin in 1920 and is owned by me and kept on lough Drumharlow.
M.V Maureen was built by Wards of Athlone in the mid 1930s, now owned by me and is in storage awaiting restoration.
Moya - currently on the hard at Coosan Point Athlone still owned by Ms Duff I think, and maybe a restoration
project for someone!!
many thanks for displaying your photos,
Andrew Moffett
