Svan
was a former British military landing craft who sank
outside Hovedøya in 1972. She was built in 1945 in
England, but the Second World War ended before she was
commissioned. In 1947 she was sold to Norway and rebuilt
for civil duty. From the mid 1950's she did service in
Hurum transporting both cargo and passengers, and ten
years later she was laid up in Oslo harbor. With little or
no maintenance she sank while she was laid up in 1972. The
wreck rest today on a depth of 13 meter on the south side
of Hovedøya, completely covered with silt and general
garbage which is the norm in the waters outside Oslo.
