Inis Bearachain is a small Connemara island where three Joyce cousins learned to row, build boats and carry turf before they carried fame. Their currach cut through rough water until it appeared in the great Tóstal races, where crowds of thousands watched and listened on radio. The island gave them muscle, patience and sea sense; the sea gave back a story that still moves when it is told.
