The
small coastal steamer Topdal disappeared in the deep at
Store Lundegårdsvann 10.July 1946. She had done service as
a ferry in Kristiansand, and early 1940 she was sold to
new owners in Bergen and used as a ferry on the route
between Bergen to Askøy. After the German invasion of
Norway in April 1940, operation Weserubüng, she laid up
mostly in-active and changed owner several times. She did
some sporadic tasks as for the German occupation forces
during the war, and as a tug in Bergen harbor. Exactly why
and when she sank is unclear, but the wreck rest today on
her keel as a classic Donald Duck wreck on a depth
of 20 meter at Store Lundegårdsvann.
