SS Nomadic

SS Nomadic is a former tender of the White Star Line, built by Harland and Wolff in Belfast as yard number 422 and launched on 25 April 1911. She was commissioned to carry passengers and mail between Cherbourg and the large liners Olympic and Titanic, which were too large to dock in Cherbourg Harbour. Two compound steam engines drove her propellers for a service speed of 12 knots. She is the only surviving vessel designed by Thomas Andrews and the last White Star Line vessel in existence. After later service at Cherbourg and a spell as a floating restaurant on the Seine in Paris, she is now on display in Belfast's Titanic Quarter, where Harland and Wolff carried out steelwork restoration from 2011.
