At the end of October 1970, "West Star" left Gdańsk for the English port of Wivenhoe with a cargo of wood. A powerful storm raged on the Baltic Sea. As the cargo shifted, the small ship heeled violently and water flooded into the engine room.
The crew attempted to save the vessel by throwing the cargo overboard. However, the ship's only engine failed. Without propulsion, the ship, tossed by the stormy waves, ran aground between the Stilo lighthouse and Łeba. Only two massive loading masts protrude from the water.

WEST STAR SHIP WRECK
Storms often devastated the coast and destroyed ships pushed aground. One of them is the unlucky Danish transport ship - "West Star", which with a load of wood sank off the Polish coast during a storm in 1970. It is currently resting near the shore near the village of Ulinia (east of Łeba). Only two stumps of the ship's masts protrude from the water, about 300m from the shore.
