SANDEFJORD DOCUMENTS, Page 5From jpg of "Cargo – Sailing Vessels" (see below thumbnail) not a lot is to be said. The list is mainly in English. The printers mark must surely be a signal on this year-book that EUGENIE has ’died’ – it is a cross, after all. In the very last column this is commented upon. In Norwegian, it says: Condemned after (shipwreck/breakdown/damage choose yourself), see part II. Condemned means that is no longer registered (in the Norwegian ship-list). The hulk can still exist, and be sold, or burned, or whatever. If it is to be used as a ship again, it will need re-registering. Perhaps this is what happened. Just to the left of the last column, it says in italics Uklass, while all the others have different markings. This mean non classified. I cannot be totally sure but I think this is a result of the condemnation, I do not think it could have been not classified if it were a working merchant ship. Even the ’employed in what trade’-column is empty, which is a little strange. "Oversjöisk" as some are marked means that they worked ’overseas’ i.e. to other countries, not just in coastal trade in its own country. Nothing is said on EUGENIE, she is no longer ’employed’. The statistics as strangely empty as well. EUGENIE went aground in May, she must have done some trips in 1906, but it doesn’t say. She was a bark all right, and the measurements on her size must surely be in feet, she couldn’t have been 162 meters long and of 30 meters width?
