(Formerly entered as NL82NW 8014). The map sheet assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary, as the available evidence does not specifically place the loss on Skerryvore. Skerryvore Lighthouse (NL82NW 1) is at NL 8384 2629.

The map sheet assigned to this record is arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location of loss that is cited by Whittaker. A location of loss on Tiree appears probable, but It remains unclear on which side of the island the vessel stranded.
