The
steamer Agnes was built by Stavanger Støberi & Dok
in Norway and launched in 1899. She sailed in the
fruit trade in the Caribbean and Central Americas until
the late 1920s and changed owners several times during
her career. She
went down outside Haugesund 9.October 1930 under a gale
where she teared apart the moorings and drifted off. She
went down in the deep at Rossabø. Salvage operations were
launched in the 1950s, and today the remains of her rest
on a depth of 20 to 42 meter in Rossabø, south of the
entrance to Smedasund.
