There's a small tourist boat also called Hibernia moored at Henley on Thames.

Seemingly Hearts claim to have a similar vessel with the same oil capacity. Esso Pedalo I think it's called.

Their one's a bus shelter.

The resemblance is uncanny.

It's got a similar number of seats, it's open to the elements and there's no castle view. The only difference is it's missing a staircase to nowhere.

Nae loose seats, so not as good as the original.

Certainly reminded me of similar images I saw of Wallsend shipyard in a Newcastle gallery so I'm sure that would be right. Amazing photo.

The Hibernia is the pride of the fishing fleet in Wexford harbour.

Seen that one a couple of times there and chatted to the owner (big guy from Dublin). I was sitting in the bar at the entrance to the Marina and it pulled up to refuel. Nearly fell off my seat!
