Moderne vartegn på Eyre Square, designet af Eamon O’Doherty og afsløret i 1984 for at markere 500-året for Galway's bycharter. De skulpturelle former fremkalder de buede sejl på Galway Hooker, de traditionelle træbåde fra Galway Bay. Et centralt stykke offentlig kunst, der forbinder byens maritime arv med dens nutidige identitet.
