This former fishing boat, originally built in 1975 as the MV 'Dayspring' and later undergoing a name change to 'Golden Harvest', lies wrecked on the shores of the Scottish Highland's Loch Linnhe, near Fort William.
The boat ran ashore during a heavy storm on 8 December 2011 and that's where she has been ever since.
The 'Corpach Wreck', as it is known, makes for an arresting sight as it sits on loch's shingle beach against the backdrop of Britain's highest mountain, Ben Nevis.
I have visited and taken photographs at this spot numerous times, but it has been a rare occasion indeed to be able to capture the 'Ben' cloud-free.
In fact, if you zoom in just to the right of the boat's mast, you can make out the mountain's final section of footpath as it zig-zags up to the summit at 1,345 metres (4,413 ft).

What #remains of an #old #BCCoast #FishingBoat - the #GlendaLynn - lies on shores of #AlertBay on #CormorantIsland in #BritishColumbia #Canada . I haven't been able to find #history of this #boatWreck & would be interested in learning about it; if anyone knows more. 10 yrs ago, you could still see her name on both sides of boat. In 2023, it's decayed more & the name is only intact on one side. A #remnant of BC's early ocean fishing industry. The boat shed beside it is #abandoned & #FallingApart
