THE RED ADMIRAL
Saltwick Bay, North Yorkshire.
The remains of the Scarborough trawler, the Admiral Von Tromp, lie on the bedrock of the bay, with the jagged outcrop of Black Nab rising in the background.
The vessel sank on 30th September 1976 with the loss of two lives.
Mystery surrounds how the trawler came to founder on the rocks of the bay, but suspicions point towards it being a deliberate act by one of the crewmen who subsequently drowned. One other life was lost in the sinking.
