Yasmin
2 miles NW of St Francis Island, South Australia
Yasmin was a none built in 1968 and lost on 24/03/1975. The cray boat Yasmin was under tow from Fowlers Bay to Elliston on 24 March 1975. The vessels were off West Island when the tow line parted which resulted in Yasmin capsizing and foundering, about two miles north-west of St Francis Island.
The oddity, explained
Why is Yasmin unusual?
Yasmin appears here because the approved source classifies it as maritime. The source describes it as Yasmin was a none built in 1968 and lost on 24/03/1975. The cray boat Yasmin was under tow from Fowlers Bay to Elliston on 24 March 1975. The vessels were off West Island when the tow line parted which resulted in Yasmin capsizing and foundering, about two miles north-west of St Francis Island. Heritage Atlas treats that specific classification-and-description combination as the oddity; the score is a comparative discovery signal, not proof of mystery or the supernatural. Compare nearby records and the linked country or category collection to understand how this entry relates to places supported by the same governed evidence.
Evidence and further exploration
The coordinate, category and description remain tied to the cited source. Comparative oddness helps discovery; it does not add facts that the source does not provide.
