1941 SVINT was in a convoy between Falmouth, Cornwall and Milford Haven, Wales with a cargo of coal for Plymouth, England, when she was attacked by aircraft 7 nm off Kellan Head, Trevose, Cornwall just after midnight on 10/07. One of the bombs went through the starboard side of the bridge and detonated in the sea, while 2 others detonated off the port side of the engine room, causing the floor plates to be blown out of position and water to gush in, whilst it filled with steam due to broken steam pipes. Within 3 minutes there was about 2' of water in the engine room, and quickly increasing until the engine room and stokehold were flooded. The 1st Mate was found killed on the foredeck. She sank in tow the same day.
