The SS Homeric of Home lines originally started out as the SS Mariposa of Matsonia Lines. Built in 1932, She was the first of a trio of liners that included the SS Monterey and Lurline. Many years would be spent in the role of serving the San-Fransico-Honolulu route, Until the bombing of pearl harbour, and US Entry into World War 2. She was requisitioned by the US navy as a troopship, like so many others at that time, and served dutifully until the end of the war in 1945. Following the war, she would be laid up for 7 long years until bought by Home Lines, an Italian company searching for new liners, and was renamed Homeric. She was refit, with a new bow that added an extra 3.5m to her profile. After a long service to Home Lines, in 1973 a fire struck out in the ship's galley, and burnt through much of the deck, causing serious damage that resulted in Home Lines selling her for scrap in Taiwan. She would be scrapped next to Holland-America's Nieuw Amsterdam. Conveniently, her sister ship, the ex-SS Lurline, RHMS Ellinis had suffered an engine failure during the same time, and an Engine was purchased from the being-scrapped Homeric, to be used on Ellinis until she too was scrapped a decade later.
