This website is a memorial to the crew of the MFV Carraig Una, lost when their trawler foundered at sea at Rathlin O’Beirne Island, off the Donegal coast, on the 23rd of November 1976.

2021 will be the 45th anniversary of the tragedy.

Two videos form the main part of this website. The first is an RTE documentary called Disasters from 2007. This video can be seen here in full: RTÉ’s Disasters

The second is another RTE documentary called Lost at Sea. This award-winning video illustrates the response to the disaster. This video can be seen here in full: Lost at Sea
