Skipper, Paul Alliston, from Lewis, is still missing despite extensive searches.
Lachlan Armstrong from Stornoway survived after managing to swim to shore.
Organiser Iain Mackillop said the total tallied £1,814.
The Criterion Bar donated £1,000 from its own lottery bonus ball card sales which are earmarked for local charities.
Musician Finlay Smith of Barvas donated three guitars for auction while patrons donated cash into buckets going round the pub at the event held earlier this month.
Mr Mackillop said: “As part of a small community, the Critters wanted to do all they could to support and help the families of the crew.
“The Criterion may be the smallest of the Stornoway bars but judging by the amount raised they have big hearts.”
