According to the MAIB, for concerning 2 hrs before the mishap, the policeman of the watch had actually been not aware that Priscilla was wandering away from the organized flow. Once seeing that the vessel was off track, the policeman picked an alternate course that led to the vessel heading straight right into the Pentland Skerries.
