Hello Trygve,
This boat had an interesting history during world war 2: Was catching at Newfoundland 4.1940, went to St. John's, Canada. Hired by RN 11.1940 as Minesweeper West Indies. Taken over by NORTRASHIP 7.1941. Requested by Royal Norwegian Navy 4.1942, planned used in operation "Fritham 2" at Spitsbergen (cancelled). Returned NORTRASHIP 1.9.1942. Hired by RN as Waterboat 21.6.1943. Laid up 10.10.1945. Returned owner 19.7.1946.
Se you
Atle
