The Oceanlc's time was six days and two hours. The Oceanic is the largest vessel ever built. She was launched at Belfast, January 14th, at the shipbuild 1 lg yards of Harland & Wolff Her di m :nslons arc 704 feet long, 72 feet beam and 08 feet in depth, with draught, light of 22 feet and loaded 32 J feet.
