What is recorded here

Spanish Castle: Firth of Forth was a motor fishing vessel lost in the Firth of Forth near East Lothian. The name suggests a castle, but the truth is a working boat that sank where the tide still moves. It may have carried fishermen, bait, net rope and ordinary hope before the water took it. The sea keeps that castle hidden, not in stone but in brass, timber and salt.
