It was tossed ashore on Porthleven Beach by a south-west gale on November 3rd 1931. She had sailed from Cardiff the previous morning, homeward bound to Vannes with coal, but the fine weather soon changed. Her rudder was smashed by heavy seas and several sails were blown away before she crawled past the Wolf Rock in darkness and was carried to leeward towards Mount's Bay. Throughout the morning on November 3rd she ran before the storm and the sight of the battered schooner brought to readiness every lifeboat from LSA company between Penzance and the Lizard. The master of the St Anne, Captain Le Bitter, headed for Porthleven harbour but was foiled by tremendous seas. The St Anne hauled of a little to the east but, unable to stand up to the gale, she was flung ashore just outside the harbour mouth. The crew climbed into the rigging and clung there as the schooner rolled in the surf. A man swam out with a line but was driven back when almost on point of securing it to the bowsprit guys. The Porthleven rocket brigades first rocket was swept away over the stern into the sea, but the second fell straight and true, just forward of the mainmast, where it was easily secured. One by one the five men and a boy were brought ashore, the last crew to be wrecked in a fashion which for two centuries had brought tragedy and heroism to the eastern shores of Mount's Bay.

Title A name given to the resource St. Guenole, wrecked at Gribba Point, November 1st 1948 Subject The topic of the resource Tanker, Tar Ballast Shipwreck Wreck Description An account of the resource Eleven years passed, and the tragedy of the Vierge Marie was repeated. Again, it was the usual 'wreck weather' for the western cliffs: hazy with heavy ground seas, the aftermath of a hard south-west gale. Shortly after one o'clock in the morning of November 1st 19148, the coastguard on watch at Treen saw the lights of a motor vessel emerge from a fierce squall of rain and head straight for the surf beating upon Pedn-e-Vounder sans. In response to the rapid blink of Aldis Lamp, she turned eastward and vanished round Logan Rock headland. Though she made no signal, either to acknowledge the warning or to ask for help, he called out Treen LSA Company and another coastguard and went down into Penberth Cove. There was no sign of the mysterious ship, but the wind was thick with the stench of fuel oil. Suddenly her saw a young man washing about in the surf and despite almost being swept away, dragged him out and carried him to a nearby cottage. Search parties began to scour the cliffs. A lifejacket marked 'ST GUENOLE-ROUEN' was pickier up on the rocks near the cove, and at dawn a vessel of about 500 tons was found bottom up beneath Gribba point, less then half a mile away. The St Guenole, a steel tar tanker owned by Cie Mar de Transport de Goudron of Rouen, bound in ballast from Nantes to Irvine on Clydside with a crew of twelve, was a total wreck. Twenty-three-year old Andre Fourcin, the sailor saved by the coastguard, was the sole survivor. The St Guenole rusted away beneath the Penberth Cliffs and the memory of the wreck slowly faded. Description from Richard Larn and Clive Carter, Cornish Shipwrecks: The South Coast (Newton Abbot: David & Charles, 1971), p.211-212.

She was on her way to Liverpool via Plymouth when an error of navigation and bad visibility combined to put her ashore on the Maenheere rocks. Two days after she went ashore, a railway company steamer arrived alongside to disembark the passengers, luggage, and was followed later by every available lighter and coaster in the West Country. On March 20th, in calm conditions, unloading of the cargo into the smaller vessels began and was completed exactly one hour before the weather deteriorated on March 27th. Divers inspected the hull, but the Suevic was so badly damaged in the forepart that explosives were used to detach the bow section from the remainder. The after portion, containing all the valuable machinery, boilers, and passenger accommodation, then floated free and virtually undamaged, was towed to Southampton and dry docked. A new bow section was built at Belfast, then towed to Southampton where the two ends were malted and the Suevic was re-born to sail again. So confident of success were the owners that they advertised her next sailing for January 14th 1908, while the bow section was still on the stocks at Belfast. During the First World War the Suevic served as a troopship, and in 1929 she was sold to a Norwegian whaling company. Re-named the Skyttern, she survived as a whale factory ship until April 1st 1942 when her crew deliberately scuttled her in the Skagerrak rather than let her fall into German Hands.
