On Nov. 25-1943 she came across the Norwegian MTB 688 and the British MTB 669 in the process of attempting to sink the Norwegian Kilstraum near Kya light. When the MTB's became aware of ND16 Möwe, they laid a smoke screen and took off (Möwe later claimed to have damaged one of them, but this was probably the smoke screen). En route back to Shetland the MTB's were spotted and attacked by German aircraft, with the result that MTB 669 had to be sunk because of the damages received.

Occasionally also in the Bergen-Austevoll-Fitjar route, but the competition from Hardanger-Sunnhordlandske Dampskibsselskab was so tough that H. F. Barstad suffered economical losses and had to pull Sotra out of the route, and also had to sell one of his vessels (D/S Rolf), placing Sotra in that vessel's former service instead.

D/S Øyulf * |
Ålesund

173 gt
|
Built 1917.
Taken over by the Germans. Struck a mine and sank on Aug. 16-1940 near Haugesund. According to Jürgen Rohwer the mine had been laid by the French submarine Rubis (Cabanier) on May 27-1940. The Norwegian vessels M/S Blaamannen and D/S Jadarland had sunk in this barrage in May that year (partly swept on June 2 by the 5th R-Flotilla).
There's a posting to the "Norway During WW II" forum about this vessel (and others - external link) which states the following: "Lost after mining, probably a drifting mine. When the 52. M-flotilla searched the area afterwards, they didn't find any other mines. Struck at 15.00 - 1 killed. Be aware that the minor guardvessel Biene / NM-20 (5 brt) is stated as lost in the same place / date in some sources". This is in reply to a query which in fact uses the date July 23-1940 with regard to Øyulf's sinking. I have no way of knowing which date is correct.
The following has been received from Thomas Weis, and I'm including it here as a basis for further research on this matter:
quote: From Gröner/Jung/Maass: Die deutschen Kriegsschiffe Vol. VIII, p.371
Norwegean S/fi ÖYULF (owner E. Hareide, Aalesund) was taken over on 15 July 1940 by Kriegsmarine and called BIENE (BE). Fishery number M-2-HD. On 23 July 1940 handed over to harbor defence flottilla Norway/Bergen and got the number NB 15. Sunk 16.08.40 at 3h00 in pos. 4nm W/ Haugesund between Kvalöy and Indrevaer by mine. 1 dead.
In the index of flottillas (Gröner/Jung/Maass, Vol.VIII, p.516) I found with "Hafenschutzflottille Norwegen/Molde" the entry "NM 20 = Biene ex ..." - But ÖYULF was obviously lost with pendant number NB 15.
In Rohwer ALLIED SUBMARINE ATTACKS you will find the vessel 2 times:
Under her name ÖYULF on page 52 as mining success of RUBIS - false date, pos. Haugesund (page 52 gives date as Oct.-1940 - laid May 27).
Under her name NB15/BIENE on page 53 as mining success of NARWHAL- correct date, false fate, no pos. (page 53 says she was damaged on Narwhal's mines on Aug. 16-1940, laid June 12).
It is really difficult to decide between the minefields:
RUBIS (27 May 1940, 32 mines) 59°28N 05°12E or: NARWHAL (12 June 1940, 50 [?] mines) 59°26N 05°10E. unquote
