Southern Cross

edit

The SweWiki has a rather ok article about this ship as the Southern Cross since it then belonged to Wenner-Gren (big vip in Sweden), so the emphasis is on its later days, including transcripts from the logs during the Athenia rescue. Many of the additional sources are in English, but I can translate relevant material if there's any interest. I've linked the articles in the Wikidata. w.carter-Talk 18:08, 24 September 2014 (UTC)Reply

Mismatch

...she was 265 feet 5 inches (80.90 m) long with a beam of 40 feet 1 inch (12.22 m)
Length: 266 ft 5 in (81.20 m)
Beam:	 40 ft 4 in (12.3 m)

It's a shame to have this on a page with a link on today's home page.
