SS United States set to become reef off Florida
The SS United States is set to be sunk off Florida to create an artificial reef, according to reports from November 10 and 11. The Guardian said the plan would end a long-running dispute over the ocean liner’s fate, while The Maritime Executive reported that the ship had left Mobile, Alabama, for the reef site. WQCS reported the sinking plan, but the reports do not confirm that the ship has already been sunk.
