SS Catalina (1924)
This California Landmark is on the National Register of Historic Places and is known as the Last Great White Steamer on the Pacific Coast. Built for one million dollars by William Wrigley, the steamer elegantly carried people between the mainland and Santa Catalina Island. During WWII, she transported more troops than any other ship during the war. Abandoned by her owners and seized by the Mexican government, she now stands in the way of a multi-million dollar marina. Partially submerged in the Ensenada harbor and listing 15 degrees to her port side, she faces dismantling.
