The map sheet assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary. Although not linked in the original, the two primary accounts cited probably refer to the same stranding.
The loss of this vessel is not cited by I G Whittaker (1998), possibly suggesting her subsequent recovery.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 6 October 2005.
