Jr. Lt. Ivan Giorgievich Logutov (21) was conducting a raid to Kirkenes June 17. 1944 when his squadron of twelve were engaged by eight Fw-190. Logutov's plane was however shot down by AA-fire. He landed his plane in Karpbukt and saved his life. He was later captured by german troops. 

Marked with a buoy, but the buoy is down because of mussels on the rope. Didn't have time to clean it. You fix?

Steamship Martha was on the journey from Archangel to Bergen when she stranded near Cape Orlow in the White Sea, but later comes loose from the ground and proceed towards the Kongdfjord to get rid of the cargo, which consisted of timber. Along the way, the ship begins to take in water, and Captain Hannevig decides to seek shelter in the fjord and repair the leak before proceeding up the fjord. But November 20, 1909 Martha disappears into the depths after lying at anchor close to a day for repairs. The wreck of the Martha today rests on the keel as a typical "Donald Duck" wreck at a depth of thirty-five to fifty meters, and is relatively intact.

Boat is required. Either have one of your own or ask local Dive Center(Arctic diving).
