Registration: South Shields. Built 1874. 123grt. Length: 30m. Beam: 5m.
(Location of loss cited as N57 3.00 W2 3.50).
I G Whittaker 1998.
The map sheet and qwuasi-administrative area assigned to this record are essentially arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location of loss that is cited by Whittaker.
The Cove that is noted by Larn and Larn cannot be identified. This may be Cove Bay (name: NJ 95 01), although cross-reference to Aberdeen (rather than Stonehaven) would then appear more appropriate.
