The SS United States has not faced such a varied career as her smaller, older sister, the SS America. Built in 1952 in the growing shadow of the Jet Age, the United States was built as the true peak of American Shipbuilding by renown shipwright William Francis Gibbs. Partially funded by the government on the basis she would be readily convertible to a troop transport, She was designed for speed. While her top speed remains classified, It is theorised to have been above 40 Knots. She would take the Blue Riband from the Queen Mary on her maiden voyage, and would serve as the Fastest Ocean liner in the world until she was taken out of service in 1969. She would never sail again. She then spent many years being traded between owners and locations, had her interior auctioned off, gutted to remove asbestos, and had her lifeboats scrapped in the 1990s. An empty shell, she was eventually bought by The SSUS Conservancy which continue today to restore and revitalise the SS United States. Since then she has remained sitting in a Philadelphia Pier rusting away.
