I G Whittaker 1998.
The location assigned to this record is essentially tentative. The 'Minor Light' in question is presumably the White Head Light (NC46SE 21), at NC 45389 61786.
This loss is possibly to be equated with the wreck that is entered as NC46SE 8001, for which a location at NC c. 454 622
(N58 31.2 W4 39.3) may be suggested.
