SS Esperance Bay

SS Esperance Bay, later SS Arawa and HMS Arawa, was a British merchant ocean liner, launched in December 1921, which saw service mostly between England and the Far East and Oceania until broken up in 1955. She was often called TSS, rather than SS, standing for Twin-screw steamer.

In popular culture
Arawa appears in the last chapter of Empire of the Sun, in which the character Jim, based on the novel's author J.G. Ballard, boards with his mother and reflects on his life after the war. This scene was omitted from the 1987 film adaptation. ==Notes==
