Oksvald

Oksvald,Norway

The
                      small coastal steamer Oksvald was built at Trondheim
                      Mekaniske Verksted, and was launched in 1927 for the
                      Norwegian company Bundefjord Dampskipbsselskab. She was
                      requisitioned by the German Kriegsmarine in 1941 but
                      survived the war and was delivered back to her owners
                      after the German capitulation in May 1945. In 1974 she was
                      rigged down to a barge, and a few years later she was
                      sunk, most likely scuttled as a condemned vessel, just
                      outside the small town of Asker. The wreck rest today
                      outside Vollen and Vollen Cafe on a depth of 20 meter.
