About the wreck

MV Fu Shan Hai (Chinese: 富山海) was a Chinese bulk carrier which on 31 May 2003 was involved in a collision with the Polish container ship Gdynia north-west of the Danish island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea. Later the same day Fu Shan Hai sank in 69 metres (226 ft) of water. At that moment, she was the biggest ship to be sunk in the Baltic Sea.
