JOHN PRESTON THE John Preston is a wooden schooner lost in December 1882 although the details are unknown. She makes an interesting, shallower second dive, lying on a ledge at the top of an underwater cliff, half-a-mile from Lochaline pier. Most of the wreck
has disappeared but a huge cargo of slate still remains along with one
piece of the wooden hull and some metallic structure scattered around.
The schooner lies at a depth of 14-16meters and the wreck site is
sheltered from the worst of the currents but subject to gentle tidal flow
which provides the opportunity for a drift-dive along the cliff face.
