The six-man crew quickly called in the coastguard and were promptly rescued by helicopter and taken to Sennen Lifeboat Station. Efforts were made to try and salvage as much as possible from the now well grounded ship; a conveyer belt was set up to transport large bags of cargo up the cliff, although some was still lost to the sea.

Over the following years the continuous rough seas around Land’s End have broken the ship down to the rusted shell it is today; roughly a third of it appears to still be sat in Castle Zawn, the small cove it now calls home.
