Full Description

NMRS Report: (27/04/2007 16:33:26)
ND37NW 8051 unlocated

NLO: Pentland Firth [name centred ND 35 81].

(Classified as sloop, with cargo of lime: date of loss cited as 7 July 1800). Nelly & Kitty: this vessel was lost (?) in the Pentland Firth.
(Location cited as N58 40.0 W3 10.0).
I G Whittaker 1998.

The map sheet and quasi-administrative area assigned to this record are essentially arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location that is cited by Whittaker. The loss may have occurred within the area designated as Maritime - Orkney.
It remains unclear whether the vessel foundered or stranded: the former appears more probable.
Information from RCAHMS (RJCM), 27 April 2007.
