Full Description
Vertical Datum: LAT Orientation: EW 21-AUG-1962 Stranded wreck shown in 51 26 03N 000 42 39E. 14-JUL-1971 Stranded wreck dries 5m in 51 26 04N 000 42 38.5E. 13-MAR-1991 Shown lying E/W, on photoplot (1). Additional photograph (2). The initial recording date in a well-known and used river, suggests that the vessel may have been abandoned some time, but not particularly long before, 1962, but this is not necessarily conclusive. This vessel is not, apparently, recorded in "The Last Berth of the Sailorman", but is likely to share the profile of other sailing vessels dating from the late 19th century, recorded in that source as being hulked or burnt and abandoned in the mid 20th century. This is not, however, conclusive, either in terms of vessel type or of place of loss. (3)
