In March 4, 2020, divers of the Danish company JD-Contractor in Holstebro succeeded in finding the wreck of a sunken Dutch submarine the 'L10', which had disappeared during World War I at a position 90 miles north of the island of Terchelleng. 'L10' sank after it sank a German torpedo boat, which was looking for survivors of another sunken German torpedo boat, being the only L-type submarine that sank during World War I. The rest of the L-series was cut up many years ago. 'L10' sank with 38 men on board, and there are some relatives and descendants who now know the final resting place. Gert Normann Andersen and his team had left Thyborøn aboard the 'Vina' on March 3 with the aim of finding two sunken submarines - the Polish submarine 'Orzel' and the Dutch submarine 'O 13' - which, according to Gert Normann Andersen, are the two most wanted lost submarines in the world. The expedition will last until March 8.

The 'Vina' has left the port of Thyborøn on March 4, 2020, towards the North Sea in order to search for the Polish submarine 'Orzel' and the Dutch submarine 'O 13', actually the most sought lost submarines in the world. Both boats disappeared during World War II. JD-Contractor's owner, Gert Normann Andersen, has previously found 36 submarines in the North Sea. The expedition is the most numerous to date, with 26 men aboard the 'Vina including a photographer and a journalist from TV2/Mid-West. Also on board are eight men from the Polish project SANTI Odnalezc Orla, were successfully completed six expeditions to find the 'Orzel'.

On Aug 23, 2019, the "Vina" left Copenhagen and headed to the sinking position of the tanker "Lindesnäs" off Oxelösund to drain the fuel from its tanks.Buoys have been placed around the ship so that no unauthorized persons will disturb the work. Underwater vehicles have been sent down to investigate where hoses can be fixed to empty the tanks. The tanker was one of 30 shipwrecks along the Swedish coast which posed an acute environmental risk, according to the Sea and Water Authority. The tanker got lost 62 years ago near the lighthouse Norra Kränkan on its way from Nynäshamn to Norrköping with 1,700 cubic aircraft kerosene on board. It got off course in heavy snow and rain showers on April 17, 2019, and got stuck at 4 a.m. One hour later, the ship sank on a water depth of 70 meters. The crew of 20 was rescued. Only a small oil leakage occurred when the vessel sank. The work to dispose of the oil was estimated to last for one month and cost SEK 21 million.
