SS Mataafa
The SS ''Mataafa'' was an iron ore boat and later an automobile carrier on the American Great Lakes, famously wrecked in 1905 just outside the Duluth, MN harbor. She was built the SS ''Pennsylvania'' in 1899,〔The Great Lakes Shipwreck File: Total Losses of Great Lakes Ships 1679 - 1999, by Dave Swayze, 2001〕 and was renamed the ''Mataafa'' when she was purchased in the same year by Minnesota Steamship Company. After her sinking, she was raised and repaired, and served for another sixty years before being scrapped. ==Design==
Built in 1899 by the Cleveland Shipbuilding Company,〔The Great Lakes Shipwreck File: Total Losses of Great Lakes Ships 1679 - 1999, by Dave Swayze, 2001〕 she was 430 feet long by 50 feet wide.〔Mariners Weather Log Volume 50 No. 3, December 2006, U.S. Department of Commerce and NOAA〕 She massed 4,840 tons, and her engines were capable of producing 1,800 hp.〔Chapters & Stories, Superior's Shipwrecks, Jim Cordes Publishing, 2009〕 Like most steel ships on the Lakes, her hull was made of large metal plates riveted to an iron frame.
