| Kantara, Queen Anne had been cancelled from HX 74.
These were also in the Bermuda portion, but did not join main convoy ("to be sent to Halifax to await orders"): The following were scheduled, but did not sail: Note also that Baron Yarborough, sailing in Convoy SC 5, is said to have come from HX 75, as are Sheaf Mount, Harmala and Wisla in SC 6. |

Notes: The ships on this form were written in by hand, and a little tricky to desipher in some places (hence my question marks). I am, however, fairly confident that the above is correct. More details on all the Norwegian ships named in this table can be found in the alphabetical ship lists of this website. To the next HX convoy in my list HX 76 |
