SS Champlain
 The SS Champlain was a cabin class ocean liner built in 1932 for the French Line by Chantiers et Ateliers de Saint-Nazaire Penhoët. She was sunk by a mine off La Pallice France in 1940 -- one of the earliest passenger ship losses of the Second World War.Although not as well remembered as her larger fleetmates the Champlain was the first modern ocean liner and embodied many design features later incorporated into the French Line's SS Normandie.
