The 6-digit LR (pre 7-digit IMO) number for Santa Leonor/P & T Forester: 524209
SS Santa Leonor (or according some sources Santa Leonora)
ran onto the rocks there apparently due confusing communication
between pilot's "alright" and helmsman's interpretation of "full right."
Consequently the vessel headed full speed to the shallow rocks.
All aboard were rescued.

Position on both the Chilean paper chart and Google Earth - where you can actually see her- is 52º32.2' South, 073º36.83' West. The neat round holes in her superstructure are due to Armada de Chile using her as a target. At low water you can see most of her foremast.
Paso Shoal has claimed quite a few ships over the years. At low water you can still see some remains of Hazel Branch wrecked in 1904. HMS Brazen ran aground nearby in September 1994 but was refloated.
Hola Mafiosa, está cerca de la costa de la más meridional de cuatro pequeños islotes cercanos al oeste de Isla Simpson que se pueden ver en el fondo de todas las fotos 'en el sitio'. La posición tanto en el gráfico de papel chileno como en Google Earth, donde realmente se puede ver, es 52º32.2' Sur, 073º36.83' Oeste. Los limpios agujeros redondos en su superestructura se deben a que la Armada de Chile la usó como objetivo. En aguas bajas se puede ver la mayor parte de su mástil delantero. Paso Shoal ha reclamado bastantes barcos a lo largo de los años. En aguas bajas todavía se pueden ver algunos restos de Hazel Branch naufragados en 1904. El HMS Brazen encalló cerca en septiembre de 1994, pero fue reflotado.

The rightmost digit is thus the sum of the check digit.
Example: IMO 9074729: (9x7)+(0x6)+(7x5)+(4x4)+(7x3)+(2x2)=139> the 9 at the end is the check digit!

but what do you exactly mean with:
"add right check digit to the end"?
Is it safe to assign IMO
And "Wrecksite" may not only be all that reliable,
they also posted four of my photos of this vessel
taken at this very remote location from Shipspotting
without the courtesy of giving me copyright credit.

LR started allocating life-time 6-digit unique numbers to ships in the register in 1963, so for ships which didn't last long enough to get a 7-digit LR number (not sure when exactly they started), like SANTA LEONOR, a fake but usable "IMO" number can be constructed by adding the right check digit to the end. On that basis, provided 524209 is a genuine post-1963 LR number [that needs checking with a 1964-1968 copy of LR - I wouldn't take Wrecksite as being at all reliable on this), SANTA LEONOR would be, I think, 5242093.
