Deck log (in Norwegian)
Later information (Febr. 16 1941 letter from London):
Bunkers on departure from Milfor Haven 300 tons, as vessel did not reach Table Bay (she could not have got much further on 300 tons) must have been sunk between Milford Haven and Table Bay. Vessel was in covoy which despersed in gale. Oct. 5, 1940 last day vessel was heard of. On Dec. 19th a lifeboat from the vessel was washed ashore at Dunmore Ireland. It seems that the whole crew was lost since no information has reached London that any crew members are alive. The German refuse to have any knowledge.
