Friday 16 November 1990 in the night, Helganes stranded  north of Klovningen in Rogaland county. The weather was good with light breeze and the skipper Karsten P. Vedøy maneuvered with the autopilot. The skipper saw the rocks near Klovningen on tight sight on starboard bow and turned hard to the port side, but a stranding was not to be avoided. The vessel did not stand firm on the rocks but continued further on the same course. After a quick check in the engine room the crew could see that the water streamed in and they tried to start the pumps. But the water was already to high in the engine room, so they had to put on the rescue suits and contact Rogaland Radio. The vessel already lied deep in the water when the rescue raft was launched. After short time the engines stopped and the skipper got a message on the radio that help was on the way. When the vessel started to punch against the bottom they saw the lights of the vessel Kryssgrunn which came to assistance. Later came also the vessel Traal to the site and launched a boat on the water. When the crew had been taken onboard, Helganes had taken in to much water and sank soon after. The skipper himself said after the stranding that the accident was caused by human failure. Some days later you could read in the Haugesund newspaper that it was organized security on the site where Helganes went down since divers had been tempted by the wreck. The security was put there due to security reason. The wreck lies today on a depth of twenty to thirty six meters and is an intact wreck with the bow as the deepest part. The wreck lies by Marøy near Åkra on Karmøy in Rogaland, and you need a boat to reach the area. The wreck is normally marked with a buoy...
