Anton Konrad Knudsen Wersland

I am seeking information about my great uncle Anton Wersland. His full name is Anton Konrad Knudsen Wersland. He was born on June 11 1883 in Stavanger, Norway. All I know about his death is that he participated as crewmember in a regatta off the eastern coast of USA sometime between 1901 and 1915. The ship he was on was wrecked in a storm. If someone could please help me with informations about this, I would be very grateful. Best regards, EllenW.
