Dacona Steamer Bumps Iceberg in Calm Atlantic Passage
The steamer Dacona arrived at Pentland Hantrax, Nova Scotia, damaged after striking an iceberg on Saturday night. Captain Singslow reported passing the first iceberg at seven in the morning, with shifts in wind and clear weather later. The vessel backed engines to avoid a second collision but struck the iceberg, causing a loud crash and ice to buckle but no water ingress. The crew observed no further incidents as the ship proceeded to port in calmer conditions.
