About SS Grand Zenith

SS Grand Zenith was an oil tanker that sank sometime after December 30, 1976 with the loss of all hands. Grand Zenith was 642 feet (196 m) long and was constructed in 1953 by the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation. She measured 18,736 GRT, and was powered by a single steam turbine that gave her a speed of 17 knots (20 mph). She was launched as Orion Cometon 28 July 1953 and renamed Flying Comet in 1964, quickly followed by Western Comet the same year, then to Beta Reserve in 1973 before receiving the name Grand Zenith in 1974. At the time of her loss, she was registered in Panama and was owned by Zenith Navigation Corporation. On December 19, 1976, Grand Zenith departed Teesport, England with 8,000,000 US gallons (30,000,000 L) of fuel oil on board and 38 crewmembers.
