On April 16, 2010, the rescue vessel 'Harald V' made a significant find when it located a piece of debris from the 'Sollifjell' in the waters off Trøndelag. This debris had been adrift since March 24, when the vessel encountered a serious incident while traveling from the Båtservice Mandal AS shipyard to Harstad. Reports indicate that a section of the tunnel connecting the catamaran's hulls detached unexpectedly, prompting the 'Sollifjell' to divert and dock at Bud, located south of Kristiansund. The salvaged triangular fragment will play a crucial role in the ongoing investigation into the reasons behind this alarming mishap.
