An Entity of Type: Reefer ship, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

SS Otaki was a New Zealand Shipping Company refrigerated cargo steamship that was built in Scotland in 1908 and sunk by a German merchant raider in 1917. Otaki's design is notable because she was the first ship whose propulsion combined reciprocating steam engines with a low-pressure steam turbine. Otaki's loss is also notable because although the merchant raider SMS Möwe sank her, Otaki damaged Möwe enough to force her attacker to return to port, ending her raiding career. Otaki's Master, Archibald Bisset Smith, was posthumously awarded the Victoria Cross.
