That's useful info, erlbon. I wonder whether we have accurate measurements of other survivors (either from actual recent measuring, or from official registers)?

Here's the summary list of those believed to have gone to Scandinavia at some point, as we have it now, I think, at [warsailors.com] . We could start a fresh thread with a copy of this, and the above title.

PD 28 > CRETEARMOUR
1922 sold to ??, Norway and resold 1926 as PONTA D'AREIA [this could be have been sold to T H Skogland & Son A/S, Haugesund as SKOGLAND I or IV, for Brazil]

PD 29 > CRETERILL
1922 sold to ??, Norway and resold c1927 as URUCU
[this could be have been sold to T H Skogland & Son A/S, Haugesund as SKOGLAND I or IV, for Brazil]

PD 45 > CRETECAMP
1923 sold to Stefan Staalesen, Norway and based at herring factory at Hesteyri, Iceland
1925 sold to Kveldulfur (mng Thor Jensen), Iceland.
1956 taken to Suðureyri, Iceland and forms part of the harbour works (66.1303°N 23.5235°W)

PD 46 > CRETECOVE
1924 sold to Dalen Portland Cenentfabrik, Brevik, Norway as DPC 59
13/2/1942 grounded while under German charter [where?]
Remains in jetty at Røssøyvågen (62.81720°N 6.80263°E)

PD 64 > CRETEGLASS
1923 sold to Wrangells Saltforretning AS (H M Wrangell & Co AS), Haugesund
1970 AS Norske Fina, Haugesund - became part of bunkering quay at Bøvågen, Karmøy (59.36533N 5.29359°E)

PD 65 > CRETEGROUND
1952 sold to ??, Iceland
1956 reported towed to "Isulafjord", N Iceland and later "sunk as a breakwater" [the Westfjord Heritage Museum at Ísafjörður confirm that this did not go there, and no "Isulafjord" located - this is probably a confusion with CRETECAMP at nearby Suðureyri]
[fate unknown]
