The location assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary. The loss of this vessel presumably occurred within Anstruther (Easter) harbour (NO50SE 48.00), which is centred at NO 56831 03411.
The remains of this vessel were presumably removed without delay from the constrained area of the harbour.
