OK for up to a force 4 on the inner bay ( drawn from Blackhead to Spiddal ).
Four points :-

1) Far better fishing in outer bay. To the west of Blackhead.
2) Not so many days with Force 4 or less.
3) People die when boating and my advice carries a serious health warning.
4) 20 foot vessel is best but cost!!!!
