Just to the north of the entrance to Ayr Harbour lies the wreck of the Clyde puffer KAFFIR. She was wrecked here in September 1974, when her engineer took her out of Ayr harbour under some very dubious circumstances. She went ashore, and despite efforts to refloat her the following day, her stern gear had been damaged by the grounding and she was eventually written off as a constructive total loss. Over the years, the continual action of the sea has pounded the wreck and she is now is two sections.

Please go direct, car share wherever possible by prior arrangement with fellow members and advise your intentions as a comment here or on our Facebook group. Visitors welcome. NB Your are likely to get wet feet and maybe legs - be prepared and take care.
