The *Eileen* was a motor fishing vessel built in 1973, operating in Scottish waters. It sank in 1973, likely due to foundering in rough weather; no lives were lost, and its significance lies in being representative of the small-scale fishing fleet that characterized Scotland’s coastal fisheries in the mid-20th century.
