Lochee

1937

Lochee was a small cargo vessel built in Leith by Henry Robb’s. It demonstrates just what a varied life a vessel could have. Damaged by a mine in the river Mersey in 1940, she then saw service in the Great Lakes in North America. In 1963 she was sold to Greek owners, before becoming stranded in the Red Sea after an engine breakdown and sank on her moorings in the Suez in 1979.
