This amenity building will offer reception and meeting facilities, along with laundry and shower amenities for visiting boats. Its clever design incorporates elements of sailing masts and boat hulls, blending seamlessly with the bustling fishing port of Killybegs. The complex roof structure, featuring integrated sailing masts, required a unique approach to fabrication and assembly. To ensure precision, we fully welded various roof sections and conducted a trial fit within the workshop, preventing any discrepancies or misalignments on site. This meticulous process guarantees a flawless final structure, perfectly aligned with the nautical theme and functional requirements of the port. By incorporating innovative design and precise construction methods, this building not only enhances the functionality of the port but also celebrates the maritime heritage of Killybegs, creating a welcoming and practical space for all visitors.
