Message from Jan In Iceland

The Suðurland shipwreck, formerly known as the M. Davidsen, was a passenger ship in Iceland that started sailing in 1891. It was bought in 1919 and renamed Suðurland, serving as a transport vessel between Reykjavík and areas in Faxa Bay and Breiðafjörður. Today, the Suðurland lies abandoned near an old herring factory in Djúpavík, Iceland, where it was used as living quarters for workers back in 1935.
