Thanks Brian for that.
I think that it is important to note "an eyewitness said long after the war". Martin, I am sure will confirm the number of BUM STEERS we get from stories being told and retold by so many so called witnesses. I have not been able to find an actual witness although I have been to Cape Clear Island many times, but on the other hand I have been told "great stories"
Incidentally there was no debris or wreckage or bodies washed ashore following the sinking and it was not for some days later that it was realised that the Kerry Head was missing.
Best wishes
