My previous S##T post refers...

Well as sort of suspected, those lovely sleek yachts belonging to the rich and aimless, that are often found occupying our little bay on a sunny day, may also be contributing to the water pollution. Have a look at section 3.3 of the Dun Laoghaire marina booklet (here);

Craft not fitted with holding tanks shall not discharge sewage directly into the marina or harbour.

The inference being it's OK to discharge anywhere else?

Craft fitted with holding tanks may discharge sewage at the sewage discharge facility ... There will be a charge associated with such discharge.

The pollution in our water, after these boats have paid us a visit, suggests to this blogger that the greed culture, which endowed many of these sailors with their yachts, may dominate their thinking when their "tanks are full" - to our detriment!
