The life story of Conor OBrien, born 1880 near Foynes, Co. Limerick Ireland. On the 20th June 1923 he set out to sail around the world in his 42 ft yacht Saoirse, which he designed himself and had built at the Baltimore Fisheries School, West Cork Ireland. He was the first person ever to sail a small private craft west to east around the world and south of the 3 great capes: Cape of Good Hope, Cape Leeuwin (SW Australia) and Cape Horn - southern ocean all the way, the clipper route. He arrived back to Dun Laoghaire, Ireland, to a welcoming crowd of 10,000, on 20th June 1925, exactly two years to the day after his departure. He was awarded the Royal Cruising Club Challenge Cup three years running, 1923, 24 and 25, for this ground breaking voyage. Earlier in his life he was involved in the importation of arms for the Irish Volunteers, dedicated to seeking independence from England. He studied architecture at Oxford, was a member of the Royal Society of antiquaries, was involved in the Gaelic Revival Movement, and a member of the United Arts Club in Dublin. He was a keen mountaineer, noted for climbing in his bare feet and climbed with George Mallory in Ireland and England. Mallory later died on Everest in 1926.

JRT loves them
Size: Four Packs
My JRT loves them. He has a tendency to rip apart toys. These ropes are perfect with no frayed ends.

My dog LOVES this tiny tug ball
Size: Medium(6")
A lot smaller than I was expecting.. BUT my dog doesn’t mind at all. She seriously loves this thing. It goes flat fairly quickly, but that’s what happens with all of her soccer balls, no matter the size. She’s a pitbul catahoula mix and has a strong bite. Considering my dogs chewing abilities, I’m fairly impressed by the durability of the ball, though she chewed through all but one of the rope handles in about 2 seconds. All that said, it’s one of her favorite toys(she’s 13 years old)

Keeps the puppy entertained for hours
Size: X-Large(8")
My dog loves this. I've had to buy two because my dog destroyed the first one but there's only so much you can do with a 5 month old german shepard.
