SS Cheribon (1882-1902) was a transatlantic ocean liner steamship built for Compagnie Nationale de Navigation by William Denny & Brothers in Dumbarton, Scotland. Compagnie Nationale de Navigation initially employed the ship as a military troop transporter to French Indochina. Subsequently, the Cheribon was commissioned as a passenger ship for Italian immigrants, offering a New York route, as well as a South American route. She also was used at various times in her career as a cargo ship. The Cheribon was retired in 1899 and sold to Captain W. T. Pitt. In 1901, Pitt sold majority share of her to E. Gerrad, while retaining one-third ownership and command of the ship. On April 11, 1902, while carrying a shipment of coffee, the Cheribon wrecked on a reef off of Punta Remedios near Acajutla, El
