    There was a regularish boat service around Cork Harbour broadly speaking around and before the start of the 20th century which supplemented and competed with the railways. One steamer terminus was at Crosshaven from where this photo was taken (Crosshaven was also the terminus of the Cork Passage and Blackrock Railway) and after the Curraghbinny pier in the picture the boat would go to (or from) Ring, Spike Island, Queenstown (Cobh) or Aghada according to the back cover of (Jenkins/Newham, 1993, 0-85361-4059) DB McNeill also covers the history of the steamers; which from memory has a little complexity. I'm sure I've also come across the steamer timetables somewhere. In the end the (road) buses took over.

    "Saturday, January 22, 1916
    Officers training camp began at Volunteers Hall, Sheares St, Cork, instructed by JJ O'Connell.
    The course was to cover field work, elementary drill, physical drill, and lectures, according to the notice placed in the Irish Volunteer newspaper.
    Most of the companies in the county mainly formed in the previous six months thanks to organisers like Terence MacSwiney, Sean Nolan and Daithi Barry were represented."
