Rogue wave tore luxury yacht off cargo ship's deck
A rogue wave of around ten meters height was the reason why the "Kristian With" lost a Princess 46 foot yacht from the main deck south of Hidra in the Flekkefjord on Feb 7, 2016, at 5.30 a.m. The unmanned yacht, which had been sold in Molde and was destined for the Oslofjord, drifted northward until she hit rocks just outside Stapnes in Egersund at 12.30 p.m. and sank. She had a value of more than one million Norwegian crowns. The company's insurance company sent out a salvage tug but the sea was too stormy to save it. The "Kristian With" entered the port of Larvik at 10.30 p.m. At the grounding site of the yacht only a bunch of debris was floating on Feb 9.
