This is an original song about the loss of the Pere Charles trawler off the Hook Light House on January 10th 2007 with the loss of five lives. Proceeds from the sale of this CD will go to the Lifeboat Association in Dunmore. It will go on sale in March 2010.
The detail of the tragedy is contained in the excerpt from the official report on the CD cover:
The Irish fishing vessel "Pere Charles" with a crew of five, departed from Dunmore East at about 10.00 hours on the 10th January 2007 and proceeded to fish for herrings south of Hook Head. The vessel engaged in pair trawling with the "Suzanna G".
Shortly after 18.00 hours on the same day as both vessels made their way back to Dunmore East, the "Suzanna G" received a call on the VHF from the Skipper of the "Pere Charles" stating "She has breached on me. Stand by". The "Pere Charles" was about one mile away and just ahead of the "Suzanna G". The Skipper of the "Suzanna G" replied "Yes Ok". That was the last known contact with the "Pere Charles" as the vessel disappeared from view.
The vessel was located on the seabed on 12th January 2007. Irish Naval Service divers carried out searches of the vessel on 16th January and also between 24th and 27th January 2007. No bodies were found.
During early November 2007, the "Pere Charles" was recovered from the seabed and brought by barge to Arklow. The vessel was searched but no bodies were found (extracted from the synopsis of the report issued by the Marine Casualty Investigation Board October 2008).
The five fishermen lost were: Tomáisín Henessy (skipper) aged 30, Pat Hennessy aged 48, Pat Coady aged 27, Billy "Squid" O'Connor aged 52 and Andriy Dyrin aged 32.
On the same night, the Honeydew II from Kinsale sank off the Waterford coast with the loss of two lives.
Proceeds from the sale of this CD will go to the Lifeboat Association in Dunmore.
The song was written by Frank Walsh, a WIT Lecturer in Accounting, a Waterford native who live in Dunmore. The singer is Pat Comerford, a well-known Waterford singer who spent some years in Mexico as a professional musician in the 1970s.

Alri Saaaaaan! Oh Bidda Lort Harry deeese Rissoles are quaren good lad! I was rotten drunk down daarbor when some e-Git started on me, so I tolt him dat his ma was dog rough but she had a fine set of Larries all the same. He was raaaygin, you should have seen the head on him. He said he was going to break me face, so I hit him a box and I kicked the heart and soul out of him after. Thatll learn de girls blouse a lesson hell never forget like lad!
If you can read the above paragraph, and understand it, then you are probably Wexican. If not, here is a translation for you
How are you my friend Oh my goodness, these deep fried battered herby potato balls are extremely tasty my good fellow. I was beyond inebriated down on the harbour when some intellectually challenged person started abusing me verbally, so I told him that his mother was very ugly indeed but she had very nice breasts to make up for it. He was extremely annoyed with me, his face said it all. He told me he was going to inflict physical harm on my countenance, so I gave him a punch and I continued beating on him indefinitely. That will teach the feeble excuse for a man a life lesson he shall not soon forget!"
