The SS United States is heading south – first to Mobile, Alabama, then to Okaloosa County, Florida, where she’ll be sunk off the Gulf Coast to become the world’s largest artificial reef. Okaloosa County is home to 500 other artificial reefs, and officials are hoping that the 990-foot ocean liner becomes a tourist attraction for divers as well.
