About SS Malolo

SS Malolo (later known as Matsonia, Atlantic, and Queen Frederica) was a passenger liner, later cruise ship, built by William Cramp & Sons, Philadelphia, in 1926 for the Matson Line. The largest and most luxurious American passenger ship of her era, she was the first of a number of ships designed by William Francis Gibbs for the Matson line, which did much to develop tourism in the Hawaiian Islands. Malolo (flying fish) was built for the first-class luxury service between San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Honolulu. Malolo and other Matson liners advertised superb public rooms, spacious cabins, swimming pools, a gymnasium, and a staff, including a hairdresser, to provide a high standard of service.
