But the SS United States still owns the trans atlantic crossing record for over fifty years now.

She was filled with asbestos which is a big no no in todays ships

But she was towed to Turkey several years ago and had the asbestos removed

I think the USS Ethan Allen SSBN 608 had asbestos ... perhaps I can sue the navy.
