The closest possibilities (in the game and in real life) would appear to be the liners "Normandie", "Queen Mary" and "Queen Elizabeth".
Also in real life, the largest steamer sunk by any U-Boat was the "Empress of Britain"; 42,348GRT.
Ahhhh...7600tons...there are probably more than one of that size in the game...

Thank you for the information on the Empress of Britain. I found it interesting reading that it was bombed and then hunted by the BDU. I found it surprising that when the first torpedo hit the destroyers protecting the EOB being tugged thought it was an internal explosion from a fire.
