I may be wrong but I have posted this photo and on the back was most of the folowing info = = Carlingford towing Islandmagee, July 1939,no more details. Carlingford, ON.126961 Blt. Dublin,1907 for S.Lockington,Dundalk. 1934 ,sold to The Ribble SS Co; Liverpool. 1941 to Isaac Stewart, Belfast and ren. Third. 1952 to J.R.Bremner, Orkney and ren. Orkney Trader. 1959 broken up Dublin. --- Islandmagee, ON. 111275. Blt. Bowling 1900 as Bonahaven for the Glasgow Steam Coaster Co.Ltd; Glasgow. Sold to John A.Landsborough,Glasgow possibly 1925 and renamed Islandmagee. 1941 to Tay Sand Co; Dundee. 26th Oct 1953 Lost off Crail,Fife on passage Tay to Leith Crew of six lost. The towing vessel is, I'm sure, the Carlingford as I have quite a few photos of her and all details match, the vessel being towed may be the Rockabill as I don't have a good photo of her but it is very similar to photos of the Islandmagee..
