(Location of loss re-entered as c. 725 569 [N56 42.2 W2 27.0]). The location assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary.
Montrose Harbour or the Port of Montrose (NO75NW 44.00) occupies an ill-defined area around NO 7123 5121. It does not have a clearly-defined entrance, but is approached (from the E) between the extensive estuarine sandbanks of the River South Esk, which extend as far E as Scurdie Ness [name: NO 735 567]. The vessel evidently stranded within the area of these sandbanks.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), presumably suggesting her successful recovery.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 16 November 2011.
