COMMENT THIS PHOTO(1)
She provided cargo, mail and passenger services between Denmark and Greenland until 1969.
In September 1970 she was acquired by Educational Books Exhibits Limited of U. K. and renamed MV LOGOS to be used as a missionary ship and floating library.
On a voyage from Ushuaia to Puerto Madryn she grounded 500 yards off Solitario Islet at 54° 57' 42" S and 067° 07' 42" W on January 4, 1988 due to a navigational error.
Although the ship could not be saved, no crew members were lost or injured. The skeletal structure of the ship is still visible and has become something of a tourist attraction over the years.
Location: 54°58'12.5"S 67°07'51.6"W
