DS Havna was torpedoed on March 2, 1918, by the German U-boat UB-65 in the English Channel. The ship was en route from Sevilla to Maryport with a cargo of iron ore. Eleven people lost their lives in the shipwreck. After nearly 50 hours at sea, the survivors were rescued by a British destroyer. (Sources: Sjøhistorie.no and Med norsk skib i verdenskrigen)
