The tragic loss of the Danish motor vessel Hans Hedtoft with 95 passengers and crew cannot go unobserved.
This ship struck an iceberg on 30 January 1959 in position 59° 05' N. 43° 00' W., 40 miles south-southeast of Cape Farewell, Greenland. This ship was proceeding through regions known to be infested with ice year round and was especially constructed for ice navigation and equipped with the latest electronic devices.
