Launched in 1818 in New York, the Savannah was a 98-foot (30 m) hermaphrodite brig—meaning she was technically a sailing ship fitted with an auxiliary steam engine and side paddle wheels. On May 22, 1819, she departed Savannah, Georgia, for Liverpool, England. The voyage took 27 days and 11 hours. For most of the journey, she used her sails; the steam engine was used for only about 80 hours total because it consumed so much fuel. Ss Savannah Viola mp4
