Medina (1911)

 

Medina was the last of the ten ships in P&O's M-Class, delivered from Caird & Co of Greenock in 1911. During construction it was decided that Medina would convey King George V and Queen Mary to India, for the Delhi Durbar, and so she was initially commissioned into the Royal Navy, and her crew were mainly naval personnel. Medina was provided with an extra mast, necessary to maintain royal flag etiquette, and she was finished with a white hull with bands of royal blue and gold, and buff funnels. Various large rooms intended for public use were redecorated as royal appartments. Medina left Portsmouth for India in November 1911, returning in February 1912. Medina returned to Cairds for refitting, and was delivered to P&O in June 1912. She had only two years of peacetime service, but remained with P&O in the war. On February 1st 1917, Medina was torpedoed by U-571 off the coast of Devon.
