Evanghelia Shipwreck - Costinești, Constanța county

MV E Evangelia is a shipwrecked 7,355-gross register ton (GRT) refrigerated cargo ship at Costinești on the Black Sea coast of Romania. It was built in Northern Ireland in 1942 as the Empire ship Empire Strength and was operated by Blue Star Line from 1942 to 1961. In 1965 was bought by Greek shipowners and wrecked in 1968.
The ship had four names in her career, having been renamed Saxon Star in 1946, Redbrook in 1961 and E Evangelia in 1965.
On 15 October 1968 E Evangelia was sailing in ballast from Rijeka in Yugoslavia to Constanța in Romania when it ran aground in the Black Sea off Costinești about 16 nautical miles (30 km) south of Constanța. It was declared a total loss, and there is a suggestion that the shipwreck could have been an insurance fraud.
The ship remains a wreck at Costinești. It's back is broken, two large areas of plates are missing from her starboard side, and the entire ship's superstructure has collapsed.
Costinești is a small seaside resort, for which the wreck is a local attraction.
