South Africa: Advokate Schieande, Fernandos, Swamsee, Werner & Theo Rubis shipwrecks

SAHRA Maritime and Underwater Cultural Heritage

Otavi wreck in Namibia

September 3:

“This day in our shipwreck and aeronautical wreck history”

1902: There is a record from a single source, four further wrecked vessels in Port Elizabeth in the Eastern Cape. Very little is known about these vessels, and it is possible that they were lighters that wrecked during, or shortly after the great storm that started on the 1st of September:

• Advokate Schieande

• Fernandos

• Swamsee

• Werner

1985: Theo Rubis, this motor-powered fishing vessel was scuttled by the SA Navy southeast of Durban in KwaZulu-Natal.
