 The
SS Nomadic is one of a handful of true historic ships left in
the world today. Purpose built by Harland and Wolff to serve
the great liners of the Olympic class, she was one of the last
ships to see Titanic alive and she survives today as the only
ship remaining out of the entire White Star Line fleet. Sadly,
her future existence is not bright at all despite being saved
from the scrap yard in 2006. After 3 years of neglect, she sits
slowly rotting away in her dry dock and plans for her are now
based more around a corporate style attraction with no feel
for her enormous historical significance. On top of this, the
whole project is being enveloped in a shroud of secrecy that
hides all manner of manipulation which has more to do with personal
interests than it does to the welfare and success of the ship.
SOS
Nomadic has therefore been set up to remove this shroud
and to expose the truth of this project in an open, honest and
transparent way. With a combined total of over 5 years experience
with the SS Nomadic, it is our fervent wish to see this ship
fully and authentically restored to operational condition. This
is a reality that can be achieved according to professional
opinion as well as our own. As the TRMA are the world’s
leading research organisation into not only Titanic and the
White Star Line but also of many of the world’s greatest
liners, we hope that by the telling of Nomadic’s plight
here, we will raise her profile once more and engage in discussion
on how her future can be changed through exchanges of information
on a global scale. We hope that this resource of information
will ultimately result in the Nomadic feeling the lifeblood
of steam flowing through her and the stretching of her ‘legs’
in the open water again after over 40 years.
