On a Mauritanian cruise ship after World War I

Mauritania resumed its civil service on 2 19 19 September 2009. Her busy schedule made it impossible for her to carry out extensive maintenance plan at 1920. However, when 192 1, Cunard Line retired her, it was decided to give her an emergency overhaul of the E deck. She returned to the Tyne River Shipyard where she was born, and her boiler was modified to burn oil, and she returned to service in March 1922. Cunard noted Mauritania's efforts to maintain the speed of its regular Atlantic service. Although the ship's service speed has improved, and now it only burns 750 short tons (680 tons) of oil every 24 hours, compared with before, it did not work at the pre-war service speed. At the intersection of 1922, the average speed is only 19 knots. On 1923, Cunard confirmed that a revolutionary turbine of the ship was in urgent need of renovation, and the renovation was mainly started in Southampton. The fan in Mauritania was dismantled. Halfway through the overhaul, the shipyard workers went on strike and stopped work, so the Cunard was towed to Cherbourg to finish the work in other French shipyards. 1924 in may, the ship returned to the Atlantic route.

1928, Mauritania, modern, new interior design, and in the following year, her speed record was broken by Germany's Padre, Bremen, 28 knots (52 km/h). On August 27th, Cunard allowed Greyhound, a former Marine Corps, to make one last attempt to regain the record on the new German passenger ship. Her service, her engine has been modified to generate more electricity to provide higher service speed, but it is still not enough. Bremen only represents a new generation of ocean liner, a more powerful and technologically advanced aging Cunard liner. Although Mauritania didn't beat her German rival, the ship broke her own speed record in both the eastbound and westbound directions. 1929, Mauritania collided with a train, and the ferry was near Robbins reef lamp. There were no casualties, and her injury soon healed. 1930 During the Great Depression, Mauritania became a specialized cruise ship, coupled with the combination of new competitors' Atlantic operations. In June 19, 1930, 165438+ 10, Mauritania rescued the Swedish cargo ship Ovidia, which sank 400 nautical miles (740 kilometers) in the Atlantic Ocean, and the White Star Line in Cunard, Newfoundland was merged in June 1934. With the Olympic Games, the atmosphere is magnificent.
