I was only just reading about this wreck as it was below an article of a shipwreck I was researching in the Aberdeen Press and Journal - Wednesday 02 May 1906, I was researching the Courier shipwreck, crazy coincidence.
It's incredible quite how many ships were wrecked, collided, run aground or went missing without trace. I can't help but read some of the other stories in the papers as well and the good old days don't look quite so good, downright dangerous most of the time!! Looking forward to the Courier film, just been reading about it, poor old Mr Thorburn..
