Overview
Mariner: River Clyde is the exact Historic Environment Scotland record for the named tug Mariner in Renfrewshire. The saved class and date wording are Steam Tug (19th Century). This safely identifies the vessel-loss record, but does not by itself prove the loss date, voyage, people, cargo, cause or final condition.
The vessel and voyage
The official record names the vessel as Mariner and classifies it as Steam Tug (19th Century). The saved information does not securely name its owners, departure point, destination or cargo.
How it was lost
The record ties Mariner to this saved point in Renfrewshire. Its broad class or period must not be turned into an exact loss date, and the saved row does not safely explain the weather, accident, attack or other cause.
Deaths and survival
No safe crew list, death total, survivor total or rescue account is contained in this saved record for Mariner. Those facts need another reliable source before they can be added.
What remains
The official record preserves a distinct place for Mariner, but this saved information does not say how much of the vessel survives, whether remains were recovered, or what can now be seen.
Why it mattered
Mariner matters here because a named tug is tied to a particular Scottish coastal or sea location. Together with other losses, it shows the kinds of vessels using the waters around Renfrewshire; the exact named record also gives later research a firm starting point without inventing a fuller story.
