Full Description

NC39NE 8001 unlocated
NLO: Cape Wrath [name: NC 256 750]
Pentland Firth [name centred ND 35 81].
Possibly in Maritime - Orkney.
(No classification or cargo specified: date cited as 1 July 1923). Unknown: two masts showing 22 miles NxE of Cape Wrath.
(Location of loss cited as N58 50.0 W4 50.0).
I G Whittaker 1998.
The map sheet and quasi-administrative area assigned to this record are essentially arbitrary, being derived from the unverified location of loss that is cited by Whittaker. The loss of this vessel may have occurred within the quasi-administrative area that is designated as Maritime - Orkney.
The date and location cited are evidently those of sighting rather than loss. It remains uncertain whether and where the vessel subsequently stranded or (more probably) foundered.
