The group publishes a quarterly magazine called Inland Waterway News (IWN).[1] It contains news about the Irish waterways along with articles from the various branches/ subgroups that make up the organisation.[citation needed]
Activitiesedit
The IWAI and its subgroups host rallies over the Summer months annually.[citation needed] These rallies include the Shannon rally, Lough Derg rally and Lough Erne rally. The Shannon rally is the biggest of these rallies.[citation needed] In the bigger rallies, participants may pay a fee to take part.[citation needed] The rallies may include tests of boating skills, rescue exercises, a table quiz, fancy dress competitions, with awards ceremonies at the end.[citation needed] Some of the smaller branches hold small boat rallies with dingies.[citation needed] Branches that hold these are Boyne Navigation IWAI, Newry and Portadown IWAI and Lagan IWAI.[citation needed]
