SS Viking

SS ''Viking'' was a wooden-hulled sealing ship made famous by its role in the 1931 film named ''The Viking''. During its use in the seal hunt in Newfoundland, Canada, the ship was commissioned by the film crew. During production, an explosion destroyed the ship, resulting in the largest loss of life of a film production crew in film history.〔McIntosh, Andrew. ("The Viking (White Thunder)." ) ''Canadian Film Encyclopedia''. Retrieved: March 29, 2012.〕
==History==
In 1881, SS ''Viking'' was built by the Nylands Shipyard at Christiania, Norway, the same location where another famous Newfoundland vessel, ''Southern Cross'', was constructed. ''Viking'' was a vessel of 310 gross tons and equipped with a auxiliary engine. She was launched in 1882 from the Nylands Shipyard.
In 1904, ''Viking'' was purchased by Bowring Brothers of St. John’s for the sealing industry.〔("Trade and Commerce in Newfoundland." ) ''Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage Web Site'', 2015. Retrieved: November 7, 2015.〕 She was placed under the command of Captain William Bartlett, who remained her master until 1923. SS ''Viking'' was the smallest of the Bowring Brothers' fleet, but was capable of carrying 276 men.〔Rist 2001, p. 230.〕
''Viking'' sailed for a number of years hunting the saddleback seal off the coast of Greenland. In 1882, Norwegian explorer, scientist and diplomat Fridtjof Nansen used her for his first Arctic expedition.
