went down outside Grønningen lighthouse 11.February 1962
under a journey from Kristiansand to Northern Norway
loaded with wood. After they left Kristiansand, the engine
room caught fire and the crew had to abandon ship. Later
the same day she was taken in tow towards Kristiansand,
but at the entrance to Kristiansand they understood that
she couldn't be saved, and dropped the cable. She was
abandoned full ablaze and she burned all the way down to
the waterline. Today the devastated remains rest on a
depth of 5 to 35 meter on the south side of Grønningen
lighthouse.
