The Norwegian vintage steamship SS ''Stord I'' was built as ''Stord'' in 1913 and delivered from Laxevaag Maskin- og Jernskipsbyggeri in Bergen, Norway to Hardanger Sunnhordlandske Dampskipsselskap (HSD). She was 376 gross tons. The vessel sailed in regular traffic from 1913 to 1969. ''Stord I'' is a typical representative of the local passenger steamers built for operating between Stavanger-Sunnhordland-Hardanger and Bergen. In 1931, ''Stord I'' was rebuilt and modernised. 465 gross tons. From 1947 to 1949 she was again rebuilt at Bergens Mekaniske Verksteder, Solheimsviken, Bergen as a motorship with the installation of two, 12-cylinder Paxman-Ricardo diesels. 469 gross tons. On 2 October 1962 she collided with Fred Olsen's ''Bravo'' near Knarrevik. In 1969 she was sold to Oslo Krets av det Blå Kors and renamed MV ''O T. Moe''. She was berthed in Oslo as a floating welfare centre for alcoholics. In 1980 she was sold to Norsk Veteranskibsklub and transferred to Veteranskipslaget Fjordabåten, Bergen with a view to preservation. She was restored to 1931-condition, including the installation of engines from a 1942 steam-driven British vessel. Technical trials were run.
