What is recorded here

Bee was an Aberystwyth wooden sailing vessel lost west of Tregwint in October 1825. Lloyd's List reported that all her crew died, but did not give their names, number, route or cargo. No physical remains are confirmed at the mapped place, making this chiefly a record of an unnamed complete crew loss off the Pembrokeshire coast.

The vessel and voyage

Bee was a wooden sailing vessel belonging to the port of Aberystwyth. The brief contemporary report does not preserve her rig, size, cargo, departure, destination, master or the number of crew.

How it was lost

Lloyd's List reported on 11 October 1825 that Bee had been lost west of Tregwint. The exact day and cause were not included in the short account, so neither storm nor grounding can be stated as fact.

Deaths and survival

All the crew were lost. Their number and names remain absent from the quick record, but the phrase establishes that there were no survivors and keeps the human result central despite the missing personal detail.

What remains

No archaeological remains are confirmed at the location, though material may survive in the vicinity. This is a documented loss area, not a surveyed hull, and it lacks an object that proves the vessel's name.

Why it mattered

The wreck connects Aberystwyth mariners to a fatal event off Tregwint. It also shows how a whole crew can be reduced to one line in a shipping paper, making later work to recover their names especially worthwhile.
