SS Vaterland



SS Vaterland is a 54,282 gross ton passenger liner, was built by Blohm & Voss at Hamburg, Germany, as the second of a trio of very large ships of Imperator class for the Hamburg-America Line's trans-Atlantic route.

SS Vaterland was launched in 1913, and commissioned in 1914 and continues to offer regular service from Hamburg, and Bremerhaven to Halifax, New York, and Port-au-Prince. SS Vaterland is beginning to show her age, and has had a persistent fire in a coal bunker that got so bad at one point that the entire complement of stokers resigned en mass before the ships previous voyage from Hamburg.
