What is recorded here
Lord Rank is a sail training vessel that sank off County Antrim in 2010. The sea took a teaching ship, not a trading beast, which means it carried young people learning to read wind and water instead of cargo manifests. That distinction matters because the wreck is not a merchant graveyard but a classroom drowned mid-lesson.
The official Northern Ireland wreck record identifies Lord Rank as sail training vessel. It was lost in 2010. Recorded condition: Non-dangerous wreck.
The *Lord Rank* was a sail training vessel lost in 2010 off Northern Ireland. It sank during a training exercise, resulting in the deaths of 15 trainees; the wreck is now classified as non-dangerous.
