When Connemara carpenter Steve Mulkerrins said he was going to build and sail a Galway hooker from Chicago to home, no one quite believed him.
Not only did he construct the largest ever Galway hooker in his shed, with much help, but he sailed it through the Great Lakes and across the Atlantic in 2006.
Now he is donating it for sail training and the arts in Galway city.
