The
steamer Everonika was built by J.L. Thompson & Sons in
Sunderland and was launched in 1906. She changed names and
owners several times before she ended up with German
owners in Hamburg, and the name Irma. Under a journey from
Narvik to Germany in a convoy loaded with iron ore, she
hit ground late in the evening under poor visibility at
Lysefluene outside Rørvik 14. March 1944. She was soon
abandoned and later she her hull broke in two. After
second world war the cargo was salvaged by the Norwegian
company Høvding, who also raised her bow. The battered
wreck rest today on a depth of approx 20 to 45 meter
northwest of Djupfest pier in Bjugn.
