The location assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary. Lynedale is not noted as such on the 1998 edition of the OS 1:50,000 map, but Lyndale Point is at NG 367 573, within the SE part of Loch Snizort. Lyndale House (NG35SE 31.00) is at NG 36745 54885.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998).
