The
steamer Stubbenkammer was built by Stettiner Oderwerke AG
in Germany, and was launched in May 1925. She sailed for
the company Sassnitzer Dampfschiffahrts Gmbh before she
was sold to Norway in 1929. In 1930 she was renamed Sætre
and sailed in the Oslofjord. She was requisitioned by the
Norwegian navy in September 1939, taken by the German
Kriegsmarine in Tønsberg in April the year after, and
luckily survived the war. After the war she changed owners
and names several times; Masfjord, Aalfjord, and Blikøgutt
in 1976. Three years later she was used as a pram for the
Norwegian company Mathiassens Mekaniske Verksted in
Trondheim under the name "Ken-Rune, but this is probably
not her official name at the time. She was condemned and
scuttled outside Harstad in 1989. And there the leads
ends. From what we can gather, this wreck has not yet been
found.
