Breiva sank outside Grønningen lighthouse during a journey
from Kristiansand city to Northern Norway with a cargo of wood.
After they left Kristiansand, a the engine room caught fire and
the crew had to abandon ship. Later the same day Breiva was taken
under tow towards Kristiansand, but at the entrance to Kristiansand
the rescue party understood that the ship couldn't be saved, and
dropped the cable. Breiva was left burning and shortly after the
ship disappeared in the depth. Today the wreck lies on a depth
of five to thirty five meters, and even if the ship burned all
the way down to the waterline, you can still see large parts of
the ship...
