(Classified as Fishing Boat: date of loss cited as 12 October 1853). Unknown: this vessel was upset at the North end of Skye. 6 lost.

(Location of loss cited as N57 42.0 W6 17.0).
I G Whittaker 1998.
The map sheet assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location of loss that is cited by Whittaker. Rubha Hunish, the most northerly point of Skye, is at NG 408 771.
The vessel apparently stranded, but it remains uncertain whether and where the remains sank or were washed ashore.
