Full Description
NC46SW 8001 c. 427 603
N58 30.2 W4 42
NLO: Portnancon [name: NC 427 603].
(Classified as Motor Boat: no cargo specified, but date of loss cited as 28 July 1923). Valid: this vessel caught fire, beached and burnt at Portnancon Bay, Loch Eriboll. Registration: Aberdeen.
(Location of loss cited as N58 30.0 W4 41.0).
I G Whittaker 1998.
The location assigned to this record is essentially tentative. Portnancon Bay is not noted as such on the 1997 edition of the OS 1:50,000 map, but the name presumably applies to the small but distinct indentation into the WNW shore of Loch Eriboll immediately N of Portnancon Pier (NC46SW 5.01).
