Pajtás

Pajtás was a steam-powered passenger ship manufactured in 1918, by Schlick-Nicholson shipyard in Budapest.

In 1945, during World War II she ran into an underwater mine in Budapest, and sank.

Later it was commissioned to Lake Balaton with a lot of modifications (e.g. expanding capacity from 150 to 200), but without any official stability test or approval.

The captain tried to restore stability but the third tilt (again to port) was deadly, and the ship capsized.

After the accident, the ship was raised, turned into a motorship, and got the name Siófok.
