I just wanted to set the records straight on this one (thanks to Øistein's info). The Norwegian whaler Pol VI was indeed renamed Oksøy, but that Oksøy was in turn renamed Cyclone in Aug.-1944.
So, the Oksøy which escorted the convoy in question was the 2nd Oksøy, ex HMS Kerrera.
I hope I've got that right now!
