Stadt Zürich (ship, 1855) a few minutes. Thirteen men and eleven head of cattle died in this accident, making the sinking of the "Ludwig" by the "Stadt Zürich" the most serious shipping accident known at that time that had happened on Lake Constance. One consequence of the investigations into the disaster was an improvement in the signal regulations: in addition to the white bow light a green starboard and a red port light had to be carried. After the Bavarian ship, the "Ludwig" had sunk, the "Jura" was bought as a replacement, a ship which hitherto had worked on Lake Neuchâtel. She was dismantled,
MV TransAtlantic while "Jasmine Ace" was taking fuel. The squall caused the ship to drag its anchor. The car carrier drifted downwind, causing its starboard quarter to strike "Baffin Strait" starboard side. As a result, "Baffin Strait" anchor also began to drag, and the crew dropped a second anchor to hold the ship. The two ships were "married for several minutes", during which time the "Jasmine Ace" started her engine. The "Baffin Strait" damage included "disfigured" steel on the starboard bulwark and damage to the starboard running light.
