Tokai Maru

Tokai Maru, a Japanese passenger-cargo ship built by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, entered service in 1930 as a fast luxury freighter linking Tokyo and New York through the Panama Canal. After the United States closed the canal to Japanese shipping in 1941, it returned to Japan by way of the Strait of Magellan and was soon requisitioned as a civilian-crewed wartime transport under Japanese Navy contract. Damaged by USS Flying Fish in Apra Harbor, Guam, in January 1943, it was finally sunk there by USS Snapper on August 27, 1943. Its wreck now lies atop SMS Cormoran, making the site a rare pairing of World War I and World War II wrecks.
