Full Description

NMRS Report: (19/05/2005)
NG41SW 8014 unlocated

The INVENTUS, McKinley, from Sligo to London, was run on shore at the Isle of Skye 9th inst., having struck on a rock, and would be obliged to discharge and repair. Part of the cargo was damaged.
Source: The Marine List, LL, No. 6674, London, Tuesday September 20 1831.
NMRS, MS/829/71 (no. 6792).

The map sheet assigned to this record is entirely arbitrary; it remains uncertain on which side of the island the stranding occurred.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), presumably suggesting her successful recovery.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 19 May 2005.
