The
F 2 was built as a Geleiteboot ( escort boat ) in 1936 by
Germania
Werft in Kiel. She was built with new
and experimental engine design, which proved to rather
unsuccessful. In 1938 to 1939 she was rebuilt at
Wilhelmshaven and her tonnage increased slightly. She
ended up in Scapa Flow after the second world war, and
sank northeast of Lyness in 1946 during a gale. The wreck
rest today on her port side on a depth of 15 to 20 meter
north of Gutter Sound at Rysa Lodge. Salvage operations
were done on the wreck and the wreck behind the bridge is
just a big pile of junk. Also see the salvage barge YC-21.
