The Stubbenkammer was a German seaside resort ship that was in use around Rügen . From 1930 she sailed in Norwegian waters as Sætre , after 1945 as Masfjord and later under various other names in passenger and freight service.
history
The Stubbenkammer began in early 1925 as hull number 719 at the Szczecin Oderwerke from the stack . The client was the Saßnitz steamship company , which put the steamship into service in May 1925. The stump chamber was used on various routes around Rügen. The connection between the Greifswald harbor and Thiessow on the Mönchgut made it possible for holidaymakers coming from the south to reach their holiday resorts quickly. Excursions were also made to the island of Hiddensee , although the ship could not call at the port of Kloster due to its draft of 2.60 m. Therefore the passengers in Libben had to transfer to a ship of the cooperative shipping company Hiddensee .
At the end of the 1920s, the stump chamber ran aground off Saßnitz . In 1929 it was sold to Oslo , where, after repairs in Nylands Verksted, it was put into service in May 1930 as Sætre on the regular Oslo – Askerlandet – Sætre route. In 1939 she was chartered to the Kongelig Norsk Marine , which she used as a guard ship at the entrance to the Oslofjord near Færder. After the occupation of Norway by the Wehrmacht , it was placed under the German administration in Tønsberg on April 14, 1940 .
After the Second World War , the Sætre in Trondheim was returned to the previous owners, D / SA / S Asker, Røken & Hurum from Oslo, in a bad condition. He sold them in July 1945 to Lindås-Masfjordens Dampbaatlag A / S in Bergen . After repairs and renovations, it was used as Masfjord in liner service between Bergen and Nordhordland from November 1945 . After the owner company merged into A / S Bergen Nordhordland Trafikklag in April 1951 , the Masfjord was launched as a reserve ship .
In July 1953 the ship was sold and, after another change of ownership, finally with the Thaules Mek. Verksted in Avaldsnes on Karmøy and at A / S Haugesund Slip in Haugesund converted into a cargo ship and got a marine diesel engine . In 1954 it was put into service as Aalfjord and chartered for freight service between Trondheim and Steinkjer in September . Another renovation in 1958 on Ørens Mek. Verksted in Trondheim were installed passenger accommodation. In 1963 a new engine was installed. In December 1968 she was taken out of the freight and passenger service and in January 1969 sold to Erling Solheim in Haukøy in the Tysfjord . After removing the passenger quarters, she went to the coast service. 1974, 1975 and 1976 further changes of ownership took place. 1979 the ship was from the Mathiassen Mek. Verksted in Harstad because the previous owner could not pay the cost of the ship classification . The ship was laid up and occasionally used for various jobs. In 1989 the ship sank off Harstad and was removed from the Norwegian shipping register.
technology
A triple expansion steam engine with 320 hp powered a propeller . The ship thus reached a speed of 8.5 knots . During the renovation in 1945, one of the two chimneys was removed. During the conversion to a cargo ship in 1953/54, the steam engine was replaced by a two-cylinder engine with 200 bhp from Bolinder (built in 1942). The remeasurement was given as 166 GRT , 79 NRT and 200 tdw. At Hommelvik Verft in 1963 the engine was exchanged for two Volvo Penta 6-cylinder diesel engines with a total of 400 bhp.
When it was put into service, the number of passengers was given as 500. In Norway, the ship was registered with 334 passengers from 1930. After the conversion to a cargo ship, there were accommodations for 150 passengers on board from 1958 to 1969.
