The Texas Maritime Academy and Texas A&M University at Galveston welcomed their newest training vessel at just before 1 p.m. on Monday, October 19, 2009. TMA, through the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Maritime Administration (MARAD) has acquired the S.S. Cape Gibson to serve as the academy’s fourth training ship.
The S.S. Cape Gibson will be used as a training facility for more than 300 members of the TMA Corps of Cadets. Docked at the Mitchell Campus, she will provide a learning platform for future licensed engine and deck officers and she will serve as a floating classroom for the academy’s summer cruises.
The new ship is 605 feet long, making her more than eighty feet longer than the former TMA training ship, the USNS Sirius. The USNS Sirius made her final departure from the Mitchell Campus on June 25, 2009. The S.S. Cape Gibson averages 18 knots (around 20 mph), and displaces almost 32,000 tons – nearly double what the USNS Sirius displaced.
