Kvamsøy definitely not Cretesurf.

To add on the wreck in Kvamsøy.

I've come across a little bit of information I didn't pick up on before. Namely, the fact that all the Shoreham-built barges were quite a bit smaller than the other Creteships. (Inside Shoreham and Southwick, February 2018 - [issuu.com] )

170 x 33 x 18 ft vs 180 x 31.5 x 16.4 ft.

The Kvamsøy barge measures up to roughly 57 meters in lenght - Clearly not Cretesurf (51.8m), but quite possibly Creteravine (57,15m).

I'd say this points in the direction that Cretesurf is BK2 - last confirmed datum is shortly before the war, but nothing afterwards.

On another note - Should we start a fresh thread listing all of the Crete findings so far?
