The
steam trawler Lundy was built by Welton Cook & Gemmel
Ltd in England, and was launched in 1908 for the British
company Hull Steam Fishing & Ice Company. After the
outbreak of the Great War, she was requisitioned by Royal
Navy in May 1915 and outfitted as an armed trawler and
minesweeper. Under the Entente operations against Turkey
in the Dardanelles and Gallipoli that same year, she
collided with the steamer Kalyan and sank in Suvla Bay 16.
August 1915. Today the wreck rest on her keel as a perfect
Donald Duck wreck on a depth of 20 to 30 meter.
