Sun Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company

The Sun Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company constructed the deepwater automobile ferry Princess Anne in 1935-36 for the Virginia Ferry Corporation's run between Cape Charles and Little Creek, Va., across the mouth of Chesapeake Bay. It had the distinction of being the first fully "streamlined" ship, with exterior styling by industrial designer Raymond Loewy. The curved sheet metal surfaces were later removed as impractical.
