(Classified as wooden auxiliary lugsail [lugger], in ballast: registration cited as UL 340, and date of loss as 26 January 1912). Bonnie Haven: this vessel was burnt at Rhu-Roe [Rubha Rodha], near Lochinvar [Lochinver].

The location of loss assigned to this record is essentially tentative. That cited by Whittaker falls inland.
Rhu-Roe is presumably to be equated with Rubha Rodha, a promontory on the N side of the broad entrance to Loch Inver.
