(Date of loss cited as 17 February 1910, and registration number as PG 142: no location cited). The wreckage of this vessel can be located between two rocks at the N end of Fugla Stack (on the S part of West Burra). The winch, engines, propellor shaft and part of the stern gear remain identifiable on the rocky seabed at depths between 15 and 18m.
This vessel is known locally as the 'Sweetie Wreck' on account of the tins of peppermints that were washed up at the time of loss.
