This vessel was lost on 24 December 1943 while exercising in Inchmarnock Water, Firth of Clyde, under the command of Lt JS Bridger. A complement of 37 was embarked. She left Lochranza Bay on that morning, and a smoke candle was later seen.
The wreck remained unlocated until 26 June 1994: video imagery taken from HMS Hurworth on 5 January 1995 served to identify the vessel but no diver survey was apparently undertaken. The location was established as N55 43.683 W5 20.017, in 95m depth of water at LAT. The vessel remains complete and lies orientated 105/285 on a sandy seabed, on her port side with a 30 degree list.
NMRS, MS/1745.
