The steam trawler Reginald (1899) [PH 75] stranded on the Ledge at Porth Hellick.

A slightly distant starboard broadside view of the Plymouth registered steam trawler Reginald (1899) [PH 75] aground, heeling to port, dried out on the Ledge at Porth Hellick, St. Mary's Island. In the foreground, the crew are sitting in a semi-circle around a basket of food and the kettle. The tide is out with water just lapping from the rudder to below the funnel area of the hull. A small rowing boat is off the starboard quarter.

The Reginald was pulled off at high tide by the Eagle tug from Falmouth. It proceeded to Plymouth under its own steam with slight damage to the stem.
