The map sheet assigned to this record is entirely arbitrary, being derived solely from the location of discovery of wreckage. It is unclear whether this vessel was lost on the W (Atlantic) or E (North Minch) side of the island.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), and may have occurred beyond Scottish waters.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 30 June 2004.
