SS Champlain was a cabin class <a href="Ocean_liner" title="Ocean liner">ocean liner</a> built in 1932 for the <a href="Compagnie_G%C3%A9n%C3%A9rale_Transatlantique" title="Compagnie Générale Transatlantique">French Line</a> by Chantiers et Ateliers de Saint-Nazaire, Penhoët. She was sunk by a mine off La Pallice, France, in 1940—one of the earliest <a href="Passenger_ship" title="Passenger ship">passenger ship</a> losses of the <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</a>.

Although not as well remembered as her larger fleetmates, the Champlain was the first modern ocean liner and embodied many design features later incorporated into the French Line's <a href="SS_Normandie" title="SS Normandie">SS Normandie.</a> Her interiors were designed by René Prou who decorated spaces on several earlier French Line ships, including the cabin <a href="Ship" title="Ship">motorship</a> MS Lafayette. When she made her début in June 1932, the Champlain was the largest, fastest, and most luxurious cabin class liner afloat.

At the outbreak of the Second World War, the Champlain was pressed into evacuee work, transporting <a href="Refugee" title="Refugee">refugees</a> from Europe to the safety of <a href="North_America" title="North America">North America</a>. This included many European <a href="Ashkenazi_Jews" title="Ashkenazi Jews">Jews</a> escaping <a href="Nazism" title="Nazism">Nazi</a> <a href="German_occupied_Europe" class="mw-redirect" title="German occupied Europe">Europe</a>. <a href="Vladimir_Nabokov" title="Vladimir Nabokov">Vladimir Nabokov</a> and his family were passengers on the last voyage to New York in May 1940. It was on the return trip that the Champlain met her fate. On 17 June 1940, the liner struck a German air-laid mine while swinging at anchor in the waters off <a href="La_Pallice" title="La Pallice">La Pallice</a>, France, near <a href="%C3%8Ele_de_R%C3%A9" title="Île de Ré">Île de Ré</a>, and quickly heeled over on her side.

A few days later the <a href="Kriegsmarine" title="Kriegsmarine">German</a> submarine <a href="German_submarine_U-65_(1940)" class="mw-redirect" title="German submarine U-65 (1940)">U-65</a> fired a <a href="Torpedo" title="Torpedo">torpedo</a> into the <a href="Hulk_(ship_type)" title="Hulk (ship type)">hulk</a> –– possibly to finish her off, as much of the ship lay above water level. Many sources quote a wire service report from 1940 that as many as 300 people died but this is erroneous. Although there were many injuries there were only 11 or 12 fatalities. She was one of the largest ships sunk in <a href="World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>. Her wreck lay quite visible for over twenty years and was eventually scrapped in 1965.
