          Loch Goil made occasional trips to Lambay ad other resorts over the years 1846 to 1860. The outings generally lasted all day and there would often be a band on board to entertain the passengers. The fares charged varied according to the trip, that for the Lambay excursion being 2s. The Loch Goil was at Dublin in 1846. She was built in 1835 and should not be confused with the Loch Goil built in 1853.
