Almost 7,000 passengers from two of these ships, survivors of concentration camps, drowned swimming in 45-degree (Fahrenheit; 12.3 degrees Celsius) water toward the lighthouse on the Pelzerhaken shore or were shot by the Schutzstaffel upon reaching the shore. All passengers from a third ship, the SS Deutschland, survived.
