SS Oceanic (1965)
SS ''Oceanic'' was a cruise ship owned and operated by Peace Boat. She was built in 1965 by Cantieri Riuniti dell' Adriatico, Monfalcone, Italy for Home Lines. Between 1985 and 2000, she sailed for Premier Cruise Line under the names ''Starship Oceanic'' and ''Big Red Boat I'', before being sold to Pullmantur Cruises and reverting to her original name. In 2009 she left the Pullmantur fleet for Peace Boat.〔

''Oceanic'' was launched from drydock on 15 January 1963.〔 She was originally to be launched a week before, but due to unusually cold weather in Italy, the launch had to be delayed.〔 Her fitting out took over two years, until the ship was finally delivered to Home Lines in March 1965.〔 By this time, the company had decided to abandon transatlantic service due to falling passenger numbers and the establishment of the associated Hamburg Atlantic Line. As a result, ''Oceanic'' never in fact was used on the Europe–Canada service.〔 Home Lines (incorrectly) marketed her as "the largest ship ever designed for year round cruises".〔 In their marketing material, Home Lines also used British tonnage measurement for the ship (giving her tonnage as ), even though she was registered in Panama, and by Panamanian measurements she was only .〔
