This photo
is probably from 1945 or 46 as the ship still has a wartime raft in her
rigging on her starboard side. The Irish Plane depicted in photo
ran aground near Ballycotton, Co Cork after her steering gear failed in
a gale and she grounded becoming a total loss on 1st February
1947. All of the crew were rescued by breeches buoy.
