Perhaps Tyne and Wear archives might have data relating to shipping companies - and log books that might have recorded Janne's death http://www.twmuseums.org.uk/archives/makingavisit/

I suspect this may be the post you were referring to
http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/MARINERS/1999-07/0932999272
I note there is an email address. It may be pertinent to contact the poster to try and ascertain if the person mentioned in the post is in fact your ancestor. If you get no responce, come back to this page and we can try and figure out via crew agreements if it was your ancestor aboard CAMELIA.
Just because a vessel sails from a particular port that doesn't mean to say the vessel was registered there. In fact the CAMELIA in question was registered in North Shields. I do think there may be a North Shields connection some where along the line.
