SS Marine Marlin

SS Marine Marlin was a type C4-S-A3 ship built in 1945 by Kaiser Shipyards, Vancouver, Washington, as a troop transport ship with capacity to carry 3,485 troops for operation by the War Shipping Agency.

In 1946 she was chartered to the United States Lines and fitted to carry 926 tourist class passengers. She made her first voyage, from New York to Bremen, on September 16, 1946, and completed her last crossing, from Bremen to New York, on 17 July 1949, on which passengers were mostly from Stuttgart, Germany, and were of Armenian descent. In 1952 she was intended to be transferred to the U.S. Navy as a transport but was not acquired.

In 1965 she was converted to a dry cargo ship and renamed Green Bay. On 17 August 1971, she was sunk in Qui Nonh harbor after an underwater explosion caused by Viet Cong frogmen while discharging military supplies. On 1 September 1971, she was refloated and towed to Hong Kong where she was scrapped in 1972. This ship came to the United States in 1949 to bring over immigrants.
