NO43SW 8011 c. 404 304
N56 27.7 W2 57.1
NLO: Dundee [name centred NO 40 30].
Possibly on map sheet NO42NW.
Dundee, 11th Aug. The STRATHPEFFER, Murray, from Calcutta, in proceeding for the Camperdown dock this morning took the ground outside: she is being lightened, and is expected to dock this tide without damage.
Source: LL, No. 16,018, London, Saturday, August 12 1865.
NMRS, MS/829/72 (no. 10827).
The location assigned to this record is essentially tentative. Camperdown Dock entrance lies between two beacons ('lighthouses': NO43SW 90.01) at NO 41374 30409 and NO 41453 30460 respectively.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), presumably accepting her successful recovery.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 13 February 2007.
