It was 30 years ago, in the year 1994, that an old and storied ocean liner met its end in the Canary Islands. Though it served faithfully in war and peacetime, it was abandoned to be destroyed by time and nature. The former SS America had its final chapter on the island of Fuerteventura. This video is a pictorial tribute to a ship from 1940, that touched the lives of many individuals, who have ...

The American Star was a transatlantic ocean liner built in 1939 for the United States Lines, intended for use on the North Atlantic route. In 1994, caught in a storm off the Canary Islands, his tugboat's ties failed and he ran aground in a bay off the west coast of Fuerteventura. For a long time, the part of the bow still visible was a tourist attraction, but if you intend to come and see this ...

    I am confused by the missing funnel, as she had two. Just today I have been working on improving/salvaging photos my parents took during our voyage on the S.S. United States in May of 1958. One image that I almost didn't look at because it looked to be just some traces of grey in white, now very clearly shows this ship docked on one side of the United States Lines pier in New York and the United States to her left on the other side of the pier. Two more piers to their left is the R.M.S. Queen Elizabeth.

      @@MarkWick Well, when the Greeks rebought the ship in the late 1970s, they found that the forward funnel was badly corroded and decided to reduce it to a stump; they also thought it would modernise the exterior to compete with newer ships. The Italis only lasted for one season before she was laid up as seen here.

    UPDATE ON THE SS UNITED STATES. GOOD NEWS 9/22/24 SS America sister ship As you know, the Conservancy is committed to communicating openly with our supporters as we work to chart the best possible course for the SS United States’ future given the constraints of our ongoing litigation with the ship's pier operator, Penn Warehousing. This week the Conservancy participated in a court-ordered confidential mediation following our motion to extend the deadline to move the ship due to our landlord's alleged misconduct. Progress toward addressing a range of issues was achieved, but additional time is needed to achieve an amicable resolution of this ongoing dispute. As such, Judge Anita Brody has issued an order temporarily suspending the deadline for the removal of the vessel from Philadelphia's Pier 82 pending continued negotiations between the parties. Our efforts in the days ahead will continue to center on conducting good faith negotiations with Penn Warehousing and advancing our educational and curatorial mission. We remain steadfast in our determination to ensure that the legacy of America’s Flagship endures and inspires for future generations. We will continue to provide updates as we have them and are able to communicate them. Please don't hesitate to reach out to us with any questions, and thank you so much for your continued support, suggestions, and concern during this challenging time.
