It is very probable that the wreck now lies in 61 metres at position: 55 41′.045 N 001 34′.986 W (UK Hydrographic Wreck No. 60564.) Two years later, on 4 September 1916, the Norwegian steamer Gustav Vigeland was wrecked on the Knavestone while on passage from the Russian port of Archangelsk to London with a cargo of timber; soon after striking the rocks she began breaking up, so the crew of 21 took to the boats and landed at Seahouses. The Gustav Vigeland was a 2,185-ton steam cargo ship completed as Yard No.104 at the North Hylton shipyard of Osbourne, Graham and Co, Sunderland in October 1897; she was launched as the Rustington (Official No.108258) on 28 August 1897 for Southdown Steam Ship Co. Ltd, London, with Bell, Symondson and Co. as the manager.
