The map sheet and quasi-administrative area assigned to this record are essentially arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location of loss that is cited by Whittaker. It remains unclear whether this vessel was lost within the Dornoch Firth or out in the Moray Firth or North Sea; the former appears the more probable.
This vessel apparently foundered, possibly within the area that is designated Maritime - Highland.
