The
steamer Lina was built by Andrew & Company in
Newcastle, and was launched in 1879 for the Spanish
company Compania Anonima Vapores Vinuesa. In 1903 she was
sold to French owners and ranmed Ville De Nemours. Four
years later she was bought by Italian owners in Bari, and
she got her original name back. Under a journey from Fiume
to Catania loaded with wood, she was overtaken by a heavy
storm in the Vela Vrata channel and hit ground 14.January
1914. She was quickly forced down by the rough seas, and
disappeared in the deep. The wreck rest today standing on
her keel as a magnificent Donald Duck wreck on a depth of
25 to 50 meter outside Cres island.
