The location assigned to this record is essentially tentative, being derived from the description of loss that is cited by Whittaker. Point of Stoer lighthouse (NC03SW 6) is at NC 0037 3296.

The wreckage presumably reflects the loss of a vessel which foundered offshore, possibly beyond Scottish waters. The date cited is presumably that of the discovery of wreckage, rather than of the loss of the vessel.
