The ship got stuck on rocks at Ormøygalten south of Klubben. The lifeboat "UNI Helgeland" was called. On arrival, the vessel was high and dry on the rocks due to the falling tide. The crew was evacuated. Attempts to refloat the ship in the afternoon aroudn 3.30 p.m. failed. The "Svebas" was refloated by the tug "Polar Bison" in the night of July 10.
