    Hear is a link to the history and a pic http://www.fleetaira...ips/DASHER.html
    thanks for the info little bud theres also a very good book about the sinking of dasher by a chap called steel from ardrossan where some of the bodies were buried after the tragedy
    There are some friends of my fathers on Arran who actually saw it blow up . They said there was a huge flash. This  which got their attention and then the ship seemed to lift out the water. Then seconds later the huge bang of the explosion reached them. Due to wartime restrictions there was a lot of confusion/rumours as what had actually happened.
    They were convinced there was u-boats getting into the clyde despite the boom defences being in place.

    Really interesting pic !
