Georgios Markettos

Wreck

Why this matters

The Georgios Markettos was a Greek-registered cargo ship that ran aground on the Llyn Peninsula in Wales during a storm in 1940. The wreck resulted in the loss of several crew members and a significant amount of cargo, and it remains a notable example of wartime shipping losses in Welsh waters.
