Flying to and around Ireland

At the outset assume I know nowt about helis. All previous experience is with spamcans but might have an option to transfer to rotary with a group. My question relates to whether or not something like an EC130 would be capable (or wise) to cross the Irish Sea in? Again excuse the ignorance but is something like this all VFR or can it be IFR? - is such a heli IFR capable? What kind of range does an EC130 have (tried their website but no joy!).

... and before you ask, yes I am aware of the costs
