The
Icelandic trawler Gudrun Gisladottir hit ground in
Nappstraumen 18.June 2002. It was attempted to tow her
towards shore, but she sank later southwest of Skagen near
Ballstad. She carried quite a good portion of oil and fish
on board, and was soon earmarked to be removed or
salvaged. But after much debate by politicians, very
little was actually done and only a small part of the oil
was removed. The Icelandic company Fæsti HF received 200
million in insurance money for the loss of their ship
according to historical sources. The wreck of Gudrun
Gisladottir rest today on her keel with a listing towards
starboard on a depth of 27 to 40 meter.
