GILBERT went ahead of the steamer and GUERNSEY behind and just after the steamer passed the crew of GUERNSEY heard a loud explosion from the direction of the GILBERT.  There is no doubt that the GILBERT had been mined, but in view of the weather and the possibility of further mines the crew of the GUERNSEY refused to go near the area where the GILBERT was lost with her crew of ten.  Gothenburg registry closed.  <\/p>\n<p><em>Changelog<\/em><br \/>\n29\/12\/2008: Page published. 6 updates since then.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Additional information courtesy of G\u00f6ran Ollson Technical Official Number: 98736 Yard Number: 24 Completed 1891 Gross Tonnage: 149 Net Tonnage: 48 Length: 100.5 ft Breadth: 20.5 ft Depth: 10.7 ft Engine: C.2-cyl by Muir &#038; Houston, Glasgow Built: Mackie &#038; Thomson, Govan History 22.4.1891: Launched by Mackie &#038; Thomson, Govan (Yd.No.24) for The British Steam [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":261,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[477,3],"tags":[37,24],"class_list":["post-1870","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-lost-vessels","category-steam-trawlers","tag-lancashire-sfc","tag-lost"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1870","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/261"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1870"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1870\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21241,"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1870\/revisions\/21241"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1870"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1870"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.fleetwood-trawlers.info\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1870"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
