Ahead of the Iago vessel Captain Fremantle is the Wyre Majestic which came to grief in the Sound of Islay. The wreck can still be seen there today. At the other side of the dock is one of Wyre Trawlers coal burners. In The background is FD13 Lord Montgomery, built 1932 as Basuto. Identified by Tony Lofthouse.
