The largest wreck in the lagoon at 155m, lying on her port side, with racks of Long Lance torpedoes and periscopes stored in her holds, she was servicing submarines when she went down. Her name is still legible in raised Japanese and English lettering on the bow. A luxury NYK liner on the Yokohama-Seattle run before being requisitioned as a submarine tender. Sunk in Operation Hailstone. The torpedo stores make her the clearest surviving evidence of Truk's role as a submarine base. Anchorage: Liveaboard. Hazards: No site-specific hazards noted, brief normally.
