NMRS, MS/829/70 (no. 5410).
Sand Point is not noted as such on the 1998 edition of the OS 1:10,000 map. The name presumably applies to the ill-defined promontory around the farmstead or croft of Sand.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998).
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 4 February 2005.
