RMS Caronia was a 34,183 gross register tons (GRT) passenger ship of the Cunard Line (then Cunard White Star Line). Launched on 30 October 1947, she served with Cunard until 1967. She was initially nicknamed the "Green Goddess" after Liverpool's green and white "Green Goddess" trams, and the nickname stuck. She was one of the first "dual-purpose" ships, built both for 2-class transatlantic crossings and all 1st-class cruising. After leaving Cunard she briefly served as SS Caribia in 1969, after which she was laid up in New York until 1974 when she was sold for scrap. While being towed to Taiwan for scrapping, she was caught in a storm on 12 August. After her tow lines were cut, she repeatedly crashed on the rocky breakwater outside Apra Harbor, Guam and broke into three sections.

rdfs:comment	Die RMS Caronia (II) war ein Passagierschiff, das 1949 für die britische Cunard White Star Line (später Cunard Line) in Dienst gestellt wurde. Das als „Green Goddess“ bezeichnete Schiff blieb für Cunard bis 1967 in Dienst. Es war eines der ersten Schiffe, die sowohl für den Transatlantikverkehr als auch für Kreuzfahrten gebaut wurden. Nach ihrer Dienstzeit für Cunard wurde die Caronia von der Universal Cruise Line betrieben, die sie in Caribia umbenannte. Nach einer Explosion im Maschinenraum wurde das Schiff 1969 ausgemustert. 1974 erlitt die Caribia auf der Überführung zur Verschrottung nach Taiwan vor Guam Schiffbruch. (de) Le Caronia est un paquebot construit en 1947 par les chantiers John Brown & Company de Clydebank pour la compagnie Cunard-White Star. Il est lancé le 30 octobre 1947, baptisé à Liverpool par la prétendante au trône britannique Élisabeth II. Il quitte Liverpool pour son voyage inaugural vers New York le 4 janvier 1949. Après avoir eu une carrière émaillée de nombreux incidents et avoir passé deux ans désarmé à New York à la suite d'une explosion dans sa salle des machines ; il est vendu à la casse mais est pris dans une tempête tropicale et s’échoue à Apra Harbor le 12 août 1974. Considéré comme un obstacle pour la navigation, il est détruit sur place entre 1975 et 1977.

(en) De RMS Caronia II of later SS Caribia was een Brits passagiersschip van de rederij Cunard Line en voer op de lijn Southampton - New York . Door de zware concurrentie tussen rederijen onderling en de luchtvaart was deze lijn niet meer zo winstgevend. Daarom haalde Cunard Line het schip uit vaart in 1967 en verkocht het in 1968. Het werd verbouwd in Piraeus en omgedoopt tot Caribia. (nl) El RMS Caronia fue un transatlántico británico construido por los astilleros navales de John Brown & Company (Escocia) para la naviera Cunard White Star Line. Era conocido popularmente como «The Green Goddess», debido a que su librea se parecía a la de los tranvías de Liverpool, también conocidos con ese nombre. (es)
