There's a photo for sale on ebay now of the damaged Mino and her crew, no names though.

Perhaps a Crew List at the National Archives - need the Official number to find it. Was it 118793?

The Mino's official ship's number was 118793,

This is the closest I've got to a crew list, but presumably not complete as no mention of James Joyce.

There are more crew members in the photo of the Mino on Ebay than the four positions, Skipper, Second Hand, Third Hand, Fourth Hand, than were on the lists I found.

As the photo is of the damaged vessel Mino, , and George identified which gentleman was James Joyce, presumably he doesn't believe James was a fatality whilst serving on the Mino, at least. not during the' Russian Outrage'.
