Flicking through Brogan's biography, I realise with a whoop that we have another boat to track down, and conjecture wildly about its fictional counterpart.
Jamrach was owned by Tent Lodge (nearby farm to Lanehead) and AR sailed her quite a bit it seems. Once in a race with Swallow, and once alone where he partly capsized and had to tie the spars up with his bootlaces to avoid getting wrecked on the rocks of Peel Island.
