Schooner Torbay Lass

I like the missive, I guess we should add that it is hoped no one was connected with the vessel. Torbay Lass wrecked 1891.

Torbay Lass was a Brixham schooner, was wrecked on the Cressars 8th Dec 1891, in tow from the Mount (after delivering Welsh coal) by the tug Merlin. Merlin lost steam and the schooner drifted on to the rocks; Lady of the Isles had a go, but the schooner sank a few hundred yards off.

There is a Ryeman Rock in the vicinity.
