This information adds to the story of the largest ship that was run aground during the 1937 typhoon - the SS Conte Verde of 18,765 tons.  Of interest to me is that this grounding took place at Little Sai Wan (Siu Sai Wan) and, knowing how small the bay was in the 1950s and therefore in 1937, it must have been a spectacular sight. I hope to add it to the thread about that typhoon.  Andrew Suddaby
