This article may need a re-direct page as there are three different ships for the Grace Line to carry the name Santa Paula. NightSt✷r talk 05:40, 30 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Editing of Close Paraphrasing edit

Toolhous Duplication Detector had determined that a number of phrases closely matched source material from [1]. The close phrasing which described the ship have been re-written. Other close phrases involved generic text, description of the ships service speed and power plant, her port destinations, as well as titles to the source websites listed in the References section.

Cruise to Nowhere (Feb 1941) edit

I came across a relative's travel logged in a passenger ship manifest for the SS Santa Paula departing New York City on 28 February 1941 and returning to New York City on 13 March 1941. This seeming "cruise to nowhere" appears before the 1942 cruises New York to the Caribbean and back that are mentioned in the article. This discovery constitutes "research", so I won't be editing the article, but it seems there is a gap in the prewar story of this ship that someone with appropriate sources could update.
