  • Le RMS Tahiti est un navire de la Royal Mail britannique, un paquebot et un cargo réfrigéré. Il est lancé en 1904 en Écosse sous le nom de RMS Port Kingston pour une filiale des lignes Elder Dempster. En 1911, l'Union Steam Ship Company of New Zealand Limited l'achète et le rebaptise Tahiti. Pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, il est réquisitionné par l'armée et devient un navire de transport de troupes. En 1918, une épidémie de grippe espagnole entraîne une mortalité exceptionnellement élevée parmi les troupes à bord du navire. Après la guerre, il est rendu à ses propriétaires. En 1927, le Tahiti entre en collision avec un ferry dans le port de Sydney, tuant 40 passagers. En 1930, leTahiti coule sans faire de morts dans l'océan Pacifique Sud en raison d'inondations causées par un arbre d'hélice cassé. (fr)
