Description: Today I'm boarding one of the most iconic ships of all time. Sitting idle and powerless in Philadelphia, the SS United States was once a symbol of pride for her country. A massive vessel that shattered records and even to this day holds the record for the fastest Atlantic ship crossing. Since she was taken out of service in the 1960's, she has passed through a series of owners while awaiting her rebirth All while her paint peels and her future uncertain. I'm taking a rare look inside this infamous ship to discover what remains, thoughtfully reminiscing about the past and looking to the future. I also got to sit down with Susan Gibbs, the person at the forefront of the effort to save her. A special thanks to the SS United States Conservancy for making this video possible.
