SHIPWRECKS

44. Horing Bay wreck

Date: unknown

From time to time anglers mention a large steel wreck being visible at low tide near Horing Bay. Its origin is unknown. Presumably it is a wreck from the pre-colonial period. David Krynauw tried to find references in this regard but without success. No clues could be traced at Lloyds registers of London either.

45. "Hunsbrook"

Date: 07.11.1919

9 miles south of Walvis Bay

This steel steamship was stranded in fog and wrecked on Pelican Point in Walvis Bay in Namibia.

Is it "Hunsbrook"?:
