British steam tanker Camillo heavily damaged due to explosions according to the Dutch newspaper Voorwaarts dated 14 August 1930

An item dated Hamburg, Germany the 13th reported that the same afternoon on board of the British steam tanker Camillo a heavy explosion had occurred. She arrived the 10th at Hamburg coming from Curacao and earlier from Vlaardingen and departed the 14th in water ballast. Probably remaining gasses in the tanks caused the explosion. Heavily damaged and burning was she grounded. A second tiding reported a second explosion at 17.00 o’clock and she was now considered to be completely lost. The Camillo (ex-Joyo Maru) of the Bear Creek Oil&Shipping Co. Ltd. of Liverpool was built in 1908 at Newcastle with a tonnage of 5.135 gross and 3.149 net tons. She was now chartered by the Anglo Saxon company for a voyage towards Fayal. Another tiding reported on the 14th that the fire on board s extinguished and that she would be towed towards Hamburg to be repaired.
