NLO: Loch Inver [name centred NC 075 219]

Source: The Marine List, No. 4927, LL, London, Friday December 2 1814

NMRS, MS/829/70 (no. 5812).

The map sheet assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary. The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), presumably suggesting her successful recovery.

Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 17 February 2005.
