'''SS ''Andrea Doria''''' ({{IPA|it|anˈdrɛːa ˈdɔːrja|pron}}) was a luxury transatlantic [[ocean liner]] of the [[Italian Line]] (Società di navigazione Italia), put into service in 1953. She is widely known from the extensive media coverage of her sinking in 1956, which included the remarkably successful rescue of 1,660 of her 1,706 passengers and crew.

Named after the 16th-century [[Genoa|Genoese]] admiral [[Andrea Doria]], the ship had a [[gross register tonnage]] of 29,100 and a capacity of about 1,200 passengers and 500 crew. Of all Italy's ships at the time, ''Andrea Doria'' was the largest, fastest and supposedly safest. [[Ceremonial ship launching|Launched]] on 16 June 1951, she was home-ported in [[Genoa]], and began her maiden voyage on 14 January 1953.

On 25 July 1956, the New York City–bound vessel was approaching the coast of [[Nantucket, Massachusetts]], [[United States]]. It was thick fog and when SS Andrea Doria finally noticed the eastbound passenger liner {{MS|Stockholm|1948|2}} of the [[Swedish American Line]], they were already too close to each other and on a collision course. Struck on her starboard side, the top-heavy ''Andrea Doria'' immediately started to [[angle of list|list]] severely and take on water, which left half of her [[Lifeboat (shipboard)|lifeboats]] unusable. The consequent shortage of lifeboats could have resulted in significant loss of life, but the ship stayed afloat for over 11 hours after the collision.<ref name="Forensic Analysis">Samuel Halpern, [http://www.titanicology.com/AndreaDoria/Stockholm-Andrea_Doria_Collision_Analysis.pdf ''An Objective Forensic Analysis of the Collision Between Stockholm and Andrea Doria'']</ref> The calm, appropriate behavior of the crew, together with improvements in communications, and the rapid response of other ships, averted a disaster similar in scale to that of {{RMS|Titanic||2}} in 1912. While 1,660 passengers and crew were rescued and survived, 46 people on the ship died as a direct consequence of the collision.<ref name="lostliners">{{cite web|url=https://www.pbs.org/lostliners/chart.html|title=PBS Online – Lost Liners – Comparison Chart|publisher=[[Public Broadcasting Service|PBS]]}}</ref> The evacuated luxury liner capsized and sank the following morning. This accident remains the worst maritime disaster to occur in United States waters since the capsizing of the {{SS|Eastland||2}} in Chicago in 1915.<ref name="Hunting New England Shipwrecks">{{cite web |url= http://www.wreckhunter.net/DataPages/andreadoria-dat.htm|title=Hunting New England Shipwrecks |access-date=1 May 2012 |publisher=Wreckhunter.net}}</ref><ref name="exclusive economic zone">{{cite web |url= http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/facts/eez.html |title=The exclusive economic zone is the zone where the U.S. and other coastal nations have jurisdiction over economic and resource management |access-date=1 May 2012 |publisher=[[NOAA]]}}</ref>

While the rescue efforts for both ships were successful, the cause of the collision, culpability, and the loss of ''Andrea Doria'' generated much continued interest in the media and many lawsuits.

No determination of cause was ever formally published largely due to a confidential out-of-court settlement agreement between the two shipping companies signed during hearings immediately after the disaster. However, M/S Stockholm's commander, Captain Gunnar Nordenson, was absolved of all guilt because Andrea Doria's captain Piero Calamai gave the order to turn to port at the meeting, when according to standard he should have turned to starboard.

==History==
===Features===
[[File:DoriaStern.jpg|thumb|right|A model of ''Andrea Doria'']]

Designed by Italian architect Giulio Minoletti, ''Andrea Doria'' had a length of {{convert|212|m|ft|abbr=on}}<!--PLEASE ORIGINAL UNITS OF MEASURE FIRST-->, a [[Beam (nautical)|beam]] of {{convert|27|m|ft|abbr=on}}, and a [[gross register tonnage]] of 29,100.<ref name="lostliners"/> The propulsion system consisted of steam [[turbine]]s attached to twin [[Propeller|screws]], enabling the ship to achieve a service speed of {{convert|23|kn|km/h|lk=in}}, with a top speed of {{convert|26|knots|km/h|abbr=}}. She was neither the largest vessel nor the fastest of her day &ndash; those distinctions went to the 83,673 GRT {{RMS|Queen Elizabeth}} and {{convert|42|kn|km/h|abbr=on}} {{SS|United States||2}}; instead, her forte was luxury.

When fully booked, the ship was capable of accommodating 1,241 passengers; 218 in first class, 320 in cabin class, and 703 in tourist class. As was the rule aboard transatlantic passenger liners, each passenger class was strictly segregated to specific parts of the ship. First class accommodations were located amidships on the upper decks, cabin class accommodations were located just [[List of ship directions#Terms|abaft]] of first class, and tourist class accommodations were divided between the bow and aft ends and were connected by corridors that ran the full length of the ship. Each class had its own separate dining room, lounges, and social halls, designated areas of open deck space and enclosed promenades, and even their own swimming pools with verandas.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.andreadoria.org/DeckPlans/DeckPlan.htm|title=Deck Plans|work=andreadoria.org}}</ref> A [[crew members|crew]] of 563 was aboard.<ref name="lostliners"/><ref>[http://www.andreadoria.org/DeckPlans/DeckPlan.htm Passenger Accommodation Deck Plan]. ''Andrea Doria: Tragedy and Rescue at Sea''.</ref> Over $1 million was spent on artwork and the decor of the cabins and public rooms, including a life-sized statue of Admiral Doria.

===Safety and seaworthiness===
''Andrea Doria'' was built with a [[double hull]] divided into 11 [[bulkhead (partition)|watertight compartments]]. Any two of these could be filled with water without endangering the ship's safety. She was equipped with the latest early-warning [[radar]], and carried sixteen steel [[lifeboat (shipboard)|lifeboats]], eight on each side, enough by regulation to accommodate all passengers and crew.  These came in three designs; two 58-person [[Launch (boat)|launches]] for emergency use, two 70-person [[motorboat]]s with inboard radio transmitters, and 12 146-person hand-propelled rowboats.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|p=158}}</ref>

However, despite its technological advantages, the ship had serious flaws relating to its seaworthiness and safety.  Model testing during the design phase predicted she would develop a huge [[list (watercraft)|list]] when hit by any significant force. This was proven during her maiden voyage, when the vessel listed 28° after being hit by a large [[rogue wave]] off [[Nantucket]]. Her tendency to list was aggravated when her fuel tanks were nearly empty, which was usually at the end of a voyage.<ref name="othfors">Othfors, Daniel. Andrea Doria. ''[http://www.thegreatoceanliners.com/andreadoria.html The Great Ocean Liners: Andrea Doria] {{webarchive |url= https://web.archive.org/web/20091010114058/http://www.thegreatoceanliners.com/andreadoria.html |date=10 October 2009}}''.</ref>

This stability issue became a focus of the investigation after the sinking, as it was a factor in both the capsizing and the crew's inability to lower the port-side lifeboats. The bulkheads of the watertight compartments extended only up to the top of A Deck, and a list greater than 20° allowed water from a flooded watertight compartment to pass over its top into adjacent compartments. In addition, the design parameters allowed the lowering of the lifeboats at a maximum 15° list. Beyond this limit, up to half of the lifeboats could not be deployed.{{citation needed|date=February 2023}}

===Construction===
[[File:Andrea Doria on slip.jpg|thumb|left|''Andrea Doria'' under construction  in [[Genoa]] (June 1951)]]

At the end of [[World War II]], Italy was struggling with a collapsed economy.<ref>[http://www.lostliners.com/Liners/Italia/Andrea_Doria/ship.html Andrea Doria]. ''LostLiners.com''. {{webarchive |url= https://web.archive.org/web/20040606144737/http://www.lostliners.com/Liners/Italia/Andrea_Doria/ship.html |date=6 June 2004}}</ref> It had lost half its merchant fleet through wartime destruction and [[war reparations|reparations]] awarded to various Allied forces. The losses included the bombing and sinking of {{SS|Rex||2}}, a former [[Blue Riband]] holder for her record transatlantic crossing.  To show the world that the country had recovered from the war, and to reestablish the nation's pride, the Italian Line commissioned two new vessels of similar design in the early 1950s. The first was to be named ''Andrea Doria'', after a famed 16th-century [[Genoa|Genoese]] admiral [[Andrea Doria]], the second {{SS|Cristoforo Colombo||2}} after explorer [[Christopher Columbus]].

These ships were intended to deliver express service on the Italian Line's "Sunny Southern Route" between [[Genoa]] and New York, stopping only at [[Cannes]], [[Naples]] and [[Gibraltar]].<ref>''The Pittsburgh Press'', 10 May 1953</ref>  Three slower prewar vessels, [[MS Saturnia|''Saturnia'']], [[MS Vulcania|''Vulcania'']] and [[SS Conte Biancamano|''Conte Biancamano'']], among the handful of dowagers to survive the conflict, would follow a meandering route that included additional stops at [[Azores]], [[Lisbon]], [[Barcelona]] and [[Palermo]].

Construction of ''Andrea Doria'' started as Yard No. 918 at [[Ansaldo Shipyard]] in Genoa. On 9 February 1950, the ship's [[keel]] was [[Keel laying|laid]] on the No. 1 [[slipway]], and on 16 June 1951, ''Andrea Doria'' was launched. During the ceremony, the ship's hull was blessed by [[Giuseppe Siri]], Cardinal [[Archbishop of Genoa]], and christened by Mrs. Giuseppina Saragat, wife of the former Minister of the Merchant Marine [[Giuseppe Saragat]].

===Maiden voyage===
Initially, ''Andrea Doria'' had been scheduled to depart Genoa on her maiden voyage on 14 December 1952, but amid reports of machinery problems during sea trials, the departure was delayed to 14 January 1953.<ref>[http://www.andreadoria.org/TheShips/Default.htm The Ships: Andrea Doria]. ''Andrea Doria: Tragedy and Rescue at Sea''.</ref> Following the Italian Line's advertised route, she collected 794 passengers (152 First Class, 157 Cabin Class, 485 Tourist Class)<ref>New York Passenger and Crew Lists, 1820-1957</ref> before heading into the open Atlantic for New York. During the voyage she encountered heavy storms on the final approach to New York, [[Angle of list|listing]] a full 28° after being hit by a particularly large wave. She arrived on 23 January and received a welcoming delegation that included [[Mayors of New York City|New York Mayor]] [[Vincent R. Impellitteri]].

The 51st westbound crossing of ''Andrea Doria'' to New York began as a typical run on the North Atlantic. Her most recent eastbound crossing from New York had concluded on 14 July 1956, and after a three-day turnaround, she was scheduled to be outbound from Genoa on Tuesday, 17 July. On this run, she was booked to roughly 90% of her total passenger capacity, with 1,134 passengers travelling aboard: 190 in first class, 267 in cabin class and 677 in tourist class.  Combined with a crew of 572, a total of 1,706 persons would sail aboard her to the U.S..

On the morning of 17 July, ''Andrea Doria'' began to take on her first passengers at 8 a.m. as. A total of 277 embarked there: 49 first class, 72 cabin class and 156 tourist class. Among those traveling in first class were Hungarian ballet dancers Istvan Rabovsky and [[Nora Kovach]], who had defected from the Soviet bloc to the United States just three years earlier.{{citation needed|date=October 2022}} The ship departed at 11 a.m. on the first leg of her journey.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.andreadoria.org/TheCrossing/default.htm|title=Andrea Doria - The Crossing|website=www.andreadoria.org}}</ref>

She arrived at Cannes on the [[French Riviera]] mid-afternoon that same day. An additional 48 passengers boarded there: 30 first class, 15 cabin class, and 3 tourist class. Among them was a Hollywood actress who would become one of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s most famous passengers, [[Ruth Roman]], travelling with her three-year-old son Richard. The famous songwriter [[Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller|Mike Stoller]] was aboard as well. From Cannes ''Andrea Doria'' sailed {{convert|400|nmi|lk=in|-2}} southeast to [[Naples]], arriving the following morning. A total of 744 came aboard there: 85 in first class, 161 in cabin class, and 498 in tourist class. Most of the latter were emigrants from impoverished regions of southern Italy on their way to new lives in America. She departed just after 6 p.m.,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.andreadoria.org/Recollections/DeGirolamo/Default.html|title=Andrea Doria-De Girolamo Recollection|website=www.andreadoria.org}}</ref> arriving two days later off [[Gibraltar]]. A total of 65 passengers boarded: 26 first class, 19 cabin class, 20 tourist class, before she set out for New York.

On Wednesday, 25 July, just before noon, the passenger liner ''Stockholm'' of the [[Swedish American Line]] departed [[New York Harbor]] on her 103rd eastbound crossing across the Atlantic, headed to her home port of [[Gothenburg]], Sweden. At 12,165 tons and {{convert|525|ft|order=flip}} in length, roughly half the size of ''Andrea Doria'', ''Stockholm'' was the smallest passenger liner on the North Atlantic run during the 1950s. Completed in 1948, she was of a much more practical design than ''Andrea Doria''. Originally built to accommodate only 395 passengers in two classes, ''Stockholm'' was designed without the opulence of ''Andrea Doria'' because the Swedish-American Line was aware that the rapid growth of air travel would bring an end soon to the age of transatlantic passenger travel. However, they did not envision the massive surge in tourism fueled by the buoyant American economy that arose during the 1950s. As a result, the Swedish-American Line withdrew ''Stockholm'' from service in 1953 for an overhaul that included an addition to her superstructure to provide accommodations for an additional 153 passengers, increasing her capacity to 548. This proved successful, as by 1956 ''Stockholm'' had gained a worthy reputation on the North Atlantic.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=34–35}}</ref> 

''Stockholm'' left New York booked almost to capacity, with 534 passengers and a crew of 208. She was commanded by Captain Harry Gunnar Nordenson, though [[Third mate|Third Officer]] Johan-Ernst Carstens-Johannsen was on duty on the [[bridge (ship)|bridge]] at the time of the accident. This was his first time alone on the bridge of a ship, and he had been up since 06:00 that morning supervising baggage-loading and passenger-boarding in New York.

===Collision course===
To save time, the ''Stockholm'' set a homeward course south of the [[Lightship Nantucket|Nantucket Lightship]] and twenty miles north of the recommended eastbound course for ships leaving the United States, placing the ''Stockholm'' directly in the path of inbound westward traffic, a violation of the 1953 North Atlantic Track Agreement to which the Swedish American Line was a signatory.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Garzke|first1=William H.|last2=Simpson|first2=Pierette Domenica|date=2010|title=The Loss of the Andrea Doria: A Marine Forensic Analysis|journal=The Journal of Ship Production and Design|volume=26|issue=2|pages=98–105|doi=10.5957/jspd.2010.26.2.98}}</ref> Cruising under clear skies, the ''Stockholm's'' speed was approximately {{convert|18|kn|km/h|lk=in}} in visibility Carstens-Johannsen estimated to be {{convert|6|nmi|spell=in}}.

The waters of the North Atlantic south of [[Nantucket Island]] are frequently the site of intermittent fog, as the cold [[Labrador Current]] encounters the [[Gulf Stream]]. As ''Stockholm'' and ''Andrea Doria'' were approaching each other head-on in the heavily used shipping corridor, the westbound Italian liner had been traveling in a heavy bank for hours. The captain had reduced speed slightly from {{convert|23.0|to|21.8|kn|km/h}}, activated the ship's [[Foghorn|fog-warning whistle]], and had closed the watertight doors, all customary precautions while sailing in such conditions. However, the eastbound ''Stockholm'' had yet to enter the bank's western edge, and was seemingly unaware either of it or ''Andrea Doria's'' movement within it.

As the two ships approached each other in failing light at a combined speed of {{convert|40|kn}}, each was aware of the presence of another ship only through radar.  Compounding this, they apparently misinterpreted each other's course, and made no initial radio communication.

The original inquiry established that in the critical minutes before the collision, ''Andrea Doria'' gradually steered south, to her left, attempting a [[Port and starboard|starboard]]-to-starboard passing, while ''Stockholm'' also turned about 20° southward, to its right, an action intended to widen the clearance of a [[Port and starboard|port]]-to-port passing, but instead put the two vessels on a direct collision course.  As a result of the extremely thick fog that enveloped ''Andrea Doria'' as the ships approached each other, the two were quite close by the time visual contact was established. By then, the crews realized that they were headed straight into one-another; in spite of their last-minute evasion maneuvers they could not avoid the ramming.

In the last moments before impact, ''Stockholm'' turned hard to starboard (right) and was in the process of reversing her propellers, attempting to stop. ''Andrea Doria'', remaining at her cruising speed of almost {{convert|22|kn}} engaged in a hard turn to port (left), her captain hoping to outrun the collision. Around 11:10&nbsp;p.m., the two ships collided, ''Stockholm'' [[T-bone accident|T-boning]] the starboard side of ''Andrea Doria''.

===Impact and penetration===
[[File:Andrea Doria at Dawn.jpg|thumb|left|''Andrea Doria'' the morning after the collision with ''Stockholm'' in fog off Nantucket Island. The hole in her starboard side from the collision with ''Stockholm'' is visible near the waterline below the starboard bridge wing.]]

''Andrea Doria'' and ''Stockholm'' collided at almost a 90° angle. ''Stockholm''{{'}}s bow, heavily reinforced for operations in the icy North Atlantic,<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=74}}</ref> pierced ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s starboard side about one-third of her length from the bow, under the ship's bridge. It penetrated the hull to a depth of nearly {{convert|40|ft|m}}, and the keel. Below the waterline, five fuel tanks on ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s starboard side were torn open, and they filled with thousands of tons of seawater. Meanwhile, air was trapped in the five empty tanks on the port side, causing them to float more readily, contributing to a severe list.

[[File:Stockholm following Andrea Doria collision.jpg|thumb|right|26 July 1956: After colliding with ''Andrea Doria'', ''Stockholm'', with severely damaged [[Bow (watercraft)|bow]], heads to New York.]]

''Andrea Doria'' was designed with her hull divided into 11 [[watertight compartment]]s, separated by steel bulkheads that ran across the width of her hull, rising from the bottom of the ship's hull up to A Deck. The only openings in the bulkheads were on the bottom deck, where watertight doors were installed for use by the engine crew and could be easily closed in an emergency. Her design specified that if any two adjacent watertight compartments were breached, she could remain afloat. In addition, following the rules and guidelines set by the International Conference for Safety of Life at Sea of 1948, ''Andrea Doria'' was designed to handle a list, even under the worst imaginable circumstances, but not one greater than 15°. However, the combination of the five flooded tanks on one side and the five empty tanks on the other left her with a list that, within a few minutes of the collision, exceeded 20°. While the collision itself penetrated only one of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s watertight compartments, the severe list would gradually pull the tops of the bulkheads along the starboard side below the level of the water, allowing seawater to flow down corridors, down stairwells, and any other way it could find into the next compartment in line. The collision had also torn into an access tunnel running from the generator room, which was located in the compartment directly aft of where the collision had happened, to a small room at the forward end of the tank compartment containing the controls for the tank pumps. But a fatal flaw in ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s design existed, as at the point where the tunnel went through the bulkhead separating the two compartments, no watertight door was present. This allowed the generator room to flood rapidly, contributing to not only an increase in flooding, but a loss of electricity.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=97–103}}</ref>

''Andrea Doria'' sent this [[SOS]] call: <blockquote>SOS DE ICEH [this is ''Andrea Doria''] SOS HERE AT 0320 GMT LAT. 40.30 N 69.53 W NEED IMMEDIATE ASSISTANCE</blockquote>

It was only through the initial radio distress calls sent out by each ship that they learned one-another's identity. Soon afterward, the messages were received by numerous radio and Coast Guard stations along the New England coast, and the world soon became aware that two large ocean liners had collided.

===Assessing damage and imminent danger===
Immediately after the collision, ''Andrea Doria'' began to take on water and started to list severely to starboard. Within minutes, the list was at least 18°. After the ships separated, [[Piero Calamai|Captain Calamai]] quickly brought the engine controls to "all stop". One of the watertight doors to the engine room may have been missing, though this issue was later determined to be moot. Much more importantly, however, crucial stability was lost by the earlier failure during routine operations to [[sailing ballast|ballast]] the mostly empty fuel tanks with seawater as they were emptied, as the builders had specified (which, however, makes refueling more costly). Owing to the immediate rush of seawater flooding the starboard tanks, and because the port tanks had emptied during the crossing, the list was greater than would otherwise have been the case.

In the engine room, engineers attempted to pump water out of the flooding starboard tanks, but to no avail. Only a small amount of fuel remained, and the intakes to pump seawater into the port tanks were now high out of the water, making any attempt to level the ship futile. As the list increased over the next few minutes to 20° or more, Calamai realized that his ship was doomed.

Aboard ''Stockholm'', roughly {{convert|30|ft|-1}} of her bow had been crushed and torn away. Initially, the ship was dangerously down by the bow, but emptying the freshwater tanks soon raised the bow to within {{convert|4|in|cm|0|spell=in}} of normal. A quick survey determined that the major damage did not extend aft beyond the bulkhead between the first and second watertight compartments. In spite of her condition, the ship was soon determined to be stable and in no imminent danger of sinking.

===Rescue operations===
On ''Andrea Doria'', the decision to abandon ship was made within 30&nbsp;minutes of impact. A sufficient number of lifeboats for all of the passengers and crew was split evenly on each side of the Boat Deck. Procedures called for lowering the lifeboats until they could be secured alongside the glass-enclosed Promenade Deck one level below, allowing evacuees to climb out of windows directly into the boats. However, it was soon determined that the port side lifeboats were unlaunchable due to the severe list, which left them high in the air: lowering them would cause them to collide with the exposed hull, and cause them to tip.  Compounding things, the list also complicated normal lifeboat procedures on the starboard side, making it necessary to lower the boats empty and somehow get evacuees to board them at water level. This was eventually accomplished through ropes and [[Jacob's ladder (nautical)|Jacob's ladders]]. In fear of causing a panic and stampeding of the starboard lifeboats, Captain Calamai decided against giving the order to abandon ship until help arrived. In the meantime, Second Officer Guido Badano made announcements over the loudspeaker system instructing passengers to put on their lifebelts and go to their designated [[muster station]]s.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=104–105}}</ref>

''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s radios had limited range, so her distress message making it clear that additional lifeboats were urgently needed was relayed to other ships that could receive it.  The [[United States Coast Guard]] from New York City also coordinated on land.

In this case being in a busy shipping lane proved helpful to ''Andrea Doria''. The first ship to respond to her distress call was the {{convert|390|ft|adj=on|order=flip}} freighter ''Cape Ann'' of the [[United Fruit Company]], which was returning to the United States after a trip to [[Bremerhaven]], Germany. Upon receiving the message from the stricken ''Andrea Doria'', Captain Joseph Boyd immediately set a course for her. With a crew of 44 aboard and only two 40-person lifeboats, the assistance ''Cape Ann'' could offer was limited, but within minutes, she was joined by other ships heeding the distress call.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=137–138}}</ref> The [[US Navy]] transport {{USNS|Private William H. Thomas|T-AP-185|6}}, en route to New York from [[Livorno]], Italy, with 214 troops and dependents also responded to the signal and made immediate progress towards the site. Her captain, John Shea, was placed in charge of the rescue operation by the US Navy and readily ordered his crew to prepare their eight usable lifeboats. Also joining the rescue was the US Navy [[destroyer escort]] {{USS|Edward H. Allen|DE-531|6}}.<ref>{{cite book |last=Hoffer |first=William |title=Saved! The Story of the Andrea Doria |pages=108–109}}</ref>

{{cvt|44|nmi}} east of the collision site, the [[Compagnie Générale Transatlantique|French Line]]'s {{SS|Île de France||2}} was eastbound from New York en route to her home port of [[Le Havre]], with 940 passengers and a crew of 826 aboard. At 44,500 tons and {{convert|791|ft|order=flip}} in length, the 30-year-old luxury liner was among the largest and fastest passenger liners on the North Atlantic run. On that voyage, having left New York the same day as ''Stockholm'', she was under the command of Captain Raoul de Beaudéan, a well-respected veteran of the seas who had served the French Line for 35 years. Upon hearing of the collision and the distress call, de Beaudéan was at first skeptical of the thought of a modern ship like ''Andrea Doria'' actually foundering, and knew that if he did steer back to the collision site only to find that ''Île de France'' was not needed, it would mean having to return to New York to refuel and delay her passengers, which could have been a financial blow to the French Line. At the least he needed to contact the ''Andrea Doria'' to size up the situation.  His attempt was unsuccessful, but after communicating with ''Stockholm'', ''Cape Ann'', and ''Thomas'', he grasped that the lives of over 1,600 people were at risk, turned ''Île de France'' around, and set a direct course for the ''Andrea Doria''.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=139–143}}</ref>

Indeed, help was direly needed, as in spite of the efforts made aboard ''Andrea Doria'' to launch her starboard lifeboats many left only partially loaded, carrying in all only 200 panicked crewmen and very few passengers.<ref>{{harvnb|Moscow|1959|pp=157–160, 180}}</ref>

While other ships nearby were en route, Captain Nordenson of ''Stockholm'' determined that his ship was not in any imminent danger of sinking, and, after assuring his mostly sleeping passengers of their safety, sent some of his lifeboats to aid in the rescue. In the first hours many survivors transported by lifeboats from both ships were taken aboard ''Stockholm.''

As he approached the accident scene less than three hours after the collision, Captain de Beaudéan of the ''Île de France'' became concerned about navigating his huge ship safely among the two damaged liners, other responding vessels, lifeboats, and possibly even people in the water. Then, just as she arrived, the fog lifted, and he was able to position his ship in such a way that the starboard side of ''Andrea Doria'' was somewhat sheltered from wind and waves. He ordered all exterior lights of ''Île de France'' to be turned on. The sight of the illuminated ''Île de France'' was a great emotional relief to everyone involved.

''Île de France'' managed to rescue the bulk of the remaining passengers by shuttling its 10 lifeboats back and forth to ''Andrea Doria'', receiving lifeboat loads from those of the other ships already at the scene, and any of ''Andrea Doria's'' starboard boats left. Some passengers on ''Île de France'' gave up their cabins to grateful survivors. Many other acts of kindness were reported.

In all, 1,663 passengers and crew had been rescued from ''Andrea Doria''. The badly damaged ''Stockholm'', through the use of both her own lifeboats and those from the stricken ''Andrea Doria'', took on a total of 545 survivors, of whom 234 were crew members from ''Andrea Doria'' who had left the vessel ahead of the passengers; 129 survivors had been rescued by ''Cape Ann'', 159 by ''Pvt. William H. Thomas'', 77 by ''Edward H. Allen'', including Captain Calamai and his officers. One American sailor, who slept through the entire collision and evacuation, was rescued from the abandoned, sinking liner by the tanker ''Robert E. Hopkins''. ''Île de France'' played the largest role in the rescue, taking on 753 survivors.

Shortly after daybreak, a four-year-old Italian girl with head trauma and four seriously injured ''Stockholm'' crewmen were airlifted from that ship at the scene by helicopters sent by the Coast Guard and [[U.S. Air Force]]. A number of passengers and some crew from both vessels were hospitalized upon arrival in New York.

Once the evacuation was complete, Captain Calamai of ''Andrea Doria'' shifted his attention to the possibility of towing the ship to shallow water. However, it was clear that it was doomed.

After all the survivors had been transferred onto various rescue ships bound for New York, ''Andrea Doria'''s remaining crew began to disembark&nbsp;– forced to abandon the ship. By 6:00 am, even Captain Calamai was in a rescue boat. The sinking began at 9:45 am and by 10:00 that morning the Andrea Doria's starboard side dipped into the ocean and the three swimming pools were seen refilling with water. As the bow slid under, the stern rose slightly, and the port propeller and shaft became visible. As the port side slipped below the waves, some of the unused lifeboats snapped free of their davits and floated upside-down in a row. It was recorded that ''Andrea Doria'' finally sank bow first 10 hours after the collision, at 10:09 am on 26 July 1956. The ship had drifted {{convert|1.58|nmi|km}} from the point of the collision.<ref>{{citation|series=Secrets of the Dead|title=Case file: The Sinking of the Andrea Doria|year=2006|last=Thirteen/WNET|publisher=Educational Broadcasting Corporation|url=https://www.pbs.org/wnet/secrets/case_andreadoria/index.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100329114614/http://www.pbs.org/wnet/secrets/previous_seasons/case_andreadoria/index.html|archive-date=29 March 2010}}</ref> Aerial photography of the stricken ocean liner capsizing and sinking [[1957 Pulitzer Prize|won]] a [[Pulitzer Prize]] in 1957 for [[Harry A.

===Return to New York; families===
[[File:StateLibQld 1 171275 Stockholm (ship).jpg|thumb|27 July 1956: After colliding with ''Andrea Doria'', ''Stockholm'', with severely damaged bow, arrives at New York.]]

Because of the scattering of ''Andrea Doria'' passengers and crew among the various rescue vessels, some families were separated during the collision and rescue. It was not clear who was where, and just who had survived, until after all the ships with survivors arrived in New York. In all, six different ships participated in the rescue of the passengers and crew of ''Andrea Doria'', including the heavily damaged ''Stockholm'', which steamed back to New York under its own power with a [[United States Coast Guard]] escort after the others.

During the wait, New York City–based [[American Broadcasting Company|ABC Radio Network]] news commentator [[Edward P. Morgan]] broadcast a stirring account of the collision, not telling listeners that his 14-year-old daughter [[Linda Morgan]] had been aboard ''Andrea Doria'' and was feared dead. It was later revealed that she had been thrown from her bed when the two ships collided only to land on ''Stockholm'''s deck, suffering moderate but not life-threatening injuries and earning the epithet "miracle girl". The following night, after learning the good news, Edward P. Morgan's emotional broadcast became one of the more memorable in radio news history.

Among ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s passengers were Hollywood actress [[Ruth Roman]] and her three-year-old son, Richard. In the 1950 film ''[[Three Secrets]]'', Roman had portrayed a distraught mother waiting to learn whether or not her child had survived a plane crash. She and her son were separated from each other during the collision and evacuation. Rescued, Roman had to wait to learn her child's fate, which resulted in a media frenzy for photos as she waited at the pier in New York City for her child's safe arrival aboard one of the rescue ships. Actress [[Betsy Drake]], who was married to movie star [[Cary Grant]] at the time, also escaped from the sinking liner, as did Philadelphia mayor [[Richardson Dilworth]] and songwriter Mike Stoller (of the team [[Leiber and Stoller]]).

Assisted by the [[American Red Cross]] and news photographers, the frantic parents of four-year-old Norma Di Sandro learned that their injured daughter had been airlifted from ''Stockholm'' to a hospital in Boston, where the previously unidentified little girl had undergone surgery for a fractured skull. They drove all night from New York to Boston, with police escorts provided to their convoy in Rhode Island and Massachusetts. When they arrived, the child was still unconscious and the doctors said all that could be done was wait to see if she woke up. The little girl never regained consciousness, and succumbed to her injuries.

Other families also had their hopes of seeing loved ones again dashed, especially those who were meeting members of several young families immigrating to the United States in hope of new lives.

The pier in New York where ''Stockholm'' was heading was packed with newsreel photographers and television crews. All the major department stores and shoe stores had booths set up to give the arriving survivors clothing and shoes. Not many of the newspeople spoke Italian, so confusion occurred when the survivors were asked to take off the clothing they were just given, to be photographed putting the clothes on. But after just a few minutes, everyone was clothed and had shoes to wear.<ref>Ex WOR-TV engineer, Frank Cernese</ref>

The sinking produced a [[footnote]] in automotive history, as it resulted in the loss of the [[Chrysler Norseman]], an advanced "one-off" prototype car that had been built for [[Chrysler]] by [[Ghia]] in Italy. The Norseman had been announced as a major attraction of the 1957 auto show circuit. However, it had not been shown to the public prior to the disaster, and was lost, along with other cars in ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s 50-car garage.

===Casualties===
A total of 51 lives were lost in the collision and sinking, consisting of 46 passengers from the ''Andrea Doria'' and five members of the crew of the ''Stockholm''. Of the 46 passengers lost aboard the ''Doria'', 43 died as a result of the collision. No remains were ever recovered of these casualties, and they are believed to remain entombed within the wreck.

The area of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s hull where ''Stockholm''{{'}}s bow penetrated encompassed five passenger decks. On the uppermost of these decks, the Upper Deck, at least eight first-class cabins were destroyed. In all, six first-class passengers lost their lives. In cabin 46, Colonel Walter Carlin had been in the bathroom brushing his teeth at the time of the collision and miraculously survived, while his wife Jeanette was killed. Later aboard ''Stockholm'', crewmen searching the wreckage of the mangled bow sighted the remains of a woman matching Mrs. Carlin's description lodged in the wreckage, but before they could recover it, debris became dislodged and the body fell into the sea.<ref>Moscow, Alvin. ''Collision Course'', p. 101.</ref> In direct line of ''Stockholm''{{'}}s bow on the upper deck were cabins 52 and 54, which were occupied by Camille Cianfarra, a longtime foreign correspondent for ''[[The New York Times]]'', his wife Jane, their 8-year-old daughter Joan and 14-year-old [[Linda Morgan]], Jane's daughter from her previous marriage to American journalist [[Edward P. Morgan]].<ref>[http://nytco.com/company/milestones/timeline_1941.html 1956, July 25– ''The ocean liner Andrea Doria collides with a Swedish liner off Nantucket. Forty-six passengers die, including Camille Cianfarra, a longtime foreign correspondent for The Times.''] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110220185441/http://www.nytco.com/company/milestones/timeline_1941.html |date=20 February 2011}}, New York Times Timeline 1941–1970</ref> Joan was killed instantly, while Camille died from severe injuries moments after the collision. Jane was seriously injured, but was rescued by some other passengers, among them Dr. Thure Peterson, who had been next door in cabin 56. He sustained only minor injuries, while his wife Martha was gravely wounded and was trapped along with Jane Cianfarra. After a long struggle to free her, largely on the part of her husband, Martha succumbed to her injuries a few hours after the collision. One deck below on the Foyer Deck, near the first-class entrance, Ferdinand Melly Thieriot, circulation director of ''The San Francisco Chronicle'', along with his wife Frances (whose grandson is the actor [[Max Thieriot]]) were killed, as their suite was in direct line of ''Stockholm''{{'}}s bow. Their 13-year-old son Peter, who occupied a cabin further down the corridor, survived.

On the decks below, titled A, B and C Decks, the loss of life was greater, as it was the location of several sections of tourist-class cabins. On A Deck, eleven passengers, consisting of ten women and one elderly clergyman, were all killed. In Cabin 230, three women, Margaret Carola, Christina Covino and Amelia Iazzetta, were killed instantly. Carola had been on board with her elderly mother Rosa Carola, who had also been assigned a berth in the cabin but because she suffered from a variety of health problems, she had been in the ship's infirmary at the time of the collision and survived.<ref>Moscow, Alvin. ''Collision Course'', p. 79.</ref> Covino and Iazzetta were both sisters from New York who were returning from a visit to Italy. They were accompanied by Iazzetta's husband Benvenuto, who had been berthed in another cabin and survived.<ref>''Daily News'', New York, NY, 28 July 1956</ref>

In the next cabin forward, Cabin 228, four more women lost their lives. Among them was Laura Bremermann, a young mother of two who was returning home to Fort Worth, Texas after visiting her native Italy. Two days before the disaster Bremermann sent a telegram to her husband Floyd asking him to meet her in New York. When he arrived to find her missing he inquired with the Italian line, who initially reported she was not on the passenger list, which Bremermann refuted using the telegram from his wife as proof.<ref>''Corsicana Daily Sun'', 28 July 1956; ''Hartford Courant'', 29 July 1956</ref> On B Deck, ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s 50-car garage was staved in by the bow of ''Stockholm'', but on C Deck, the worst loss of life occurred. A total of 26 people were killed in the collision section there, mostly Italian immigrant families.

Among those killed in the collision on C Deck was opera singer Agnes Baratta, who at the time was a leading soprano of Milan's [[La Scala]] Opera House. She and her elderly mother Margherita Baratta had been en route to Redwood City, California, to visit her sister, after which Agnes had intended to audition for the [[San Francisco Opera House]]. Maria Theresina Imberlone, like the Barattas, was also bound for the San Francisco Bay Area, and was also killed in the collision. Imberlone's husband Giacomo and their 13-year-old son Giovanni, who shared another cabin, both survived.<ref>''The San Francisco Examiner'', 28–29 July, 1 August 1956</ref>

Among the losses was that of Maria Sergio and her four children, 13-year-old Giuseppe, 10-year-old Anna Maria, 7-year-old Domenica, and 4-year-old Rocco, who occupied a cabin on the starboard side of C Deck that was in direct line of the collision. She was traveling aboard ''Andrea Doria'' with her children on her way to [[South Bend, Indiana]], where her husband, Ross Sergio, and their 17-year-old son Anthony, were waiting for them. Anthony Sergio had in fact sailed to the United States from Italy aboard ''Andrea Doria'' the previous April.<ref>"Hope lessens for 5 aboard sunken liner", The Anderson Herald, pp. 14, 31 July 1956</ref> Also traveling with them were Maria's sister Margaret and her husband Paul Sergio, who also happened to be Ross Sergio's brother. Paul and Margaret had emigrated to the U.S. prior to the voyage and had returned to Italy for a visit and to accompany Maria and the children back to Indiana. Both Paul and Margaret survived the sinking, and for years after the disaster, Paul was haunted by the memory of his four-year-old nephew Rocco, the youngest of his brother's children, who just hours prior to the collision had asked if he could spend the night with his uncle.

Also lost in the collision section of C deck were Angelina Diana and her two youngest children, eight-year-old Biaggio and six-year-old Victoria. They had been en route to Hartford, Connecticut, where Angelina's husband Antonio and three of their older children were waiting. In a 2003 episode of the History Channel series ''[[Deep Sea Detectives]]'' featuring the story of ''Andrea Doria'', show host and wreck diver John Chatterton met with Angelina Diana's son Gennaro and his daughter, whom he'd named Angelina, after her grandmother, and heard the story of how the disaster came to impact their family so profoundly. In speaking with Chatterton, Gennaro recalled excitedly waking up that morning and driving to New York with his father and two older sisters to meet the rest of their family, but as the survivors from ''Andrea Doria'' came ashore, they waited for five or six days until it was confirmed that Angelina, Biaggio and Victoria were among the 51 people who lost their lives in the disaster. Meanwhile, the younger Angelina explained how she grew up with a sense of great pride having been named after her grandmother, which was in turn mirrored with sadness in never having gotten to know her, or her aunt and uncle. She then gives Chatterton a green bottle containing a family jewel, asking him to place it on the wreck to honor their loved ones' memory, which Chatterton does later in the episode during a dive to the wrecksite.<ref>''Deep Sea Detectives'', History Channel documentary series, 2003.</ref>

In addition to the lives lost in the collision, three more of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s passengers died from injuries and ailments that occurred during and after the evacuation. Norma Di Sandro, a four-year-old Italian girl traveling in tourist class with her parents, Tullio and Filomena Di Sandro, was dropped on her head into a lifeboat by her panicked father. She was taken to ''Stockholm'' and subsequently airlifted to Brighton Marine Hospital in Boston, where she died from a fractured cranium without ever regaining consciousness. Carl Watres, a businessman from Manasquan, New Jersey, who was traveling in cabin class aboard ''Andrea Doria'' with his wife Lillian, died from a sudden heart attack while en route to New York aboard ''Stockholm''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.andreadoria.org/TheSouls/CabinClassN-Z.htm|title=Andrea Doria Cabin Class Passengers N-Z|work=andreadoria.org}}</ref> Angelina Grego, a 48-year-old, broke her back after falling into one of ''[[SS Île de France|Ile de France]]''{{'s}} lifeboats. She was taken to St. Claire's Hospital in New York City, where she lingered in intense pain until her death six months later.

After the ships had separated, ''Stockholm'' crew members began to survey the damage. On the top deck of ''Stockholm'', one of the crew came across Linda Morgan, who had been thrown from her bed on ''Andrea Doria'' as the two ships collided, and landed on ''Stockholm''{{'}}s deck, suffering moderate but not life-threatening injuries. Others were not as fortunate, as five of ''Stockholm''{{'}}s crew perished in the collision.

==Aftermath==
===Litigation and determination of fault: 1956–57===
{{More citations needed section|date=February 2023}}
Several months of hearings were held in New York City in the aftermath of the collision. Prominent maritime attorneys represented both the ships' owners. Dozens of attorneys represented victims and families of victims. Officers of both ship lines had testified, including the officers in charge of each ship at the time of the collision, with more scheduled to appear later until an [[out-of-court settlement]] was reached, and the hearings ended abruptly.

Both shipping lines contributed to a settlement fund for the victims. Each line absorbed its own damages. For the Swedish-American Line, damages were estimated at $2 million, half for repairs to ''Stockholm''{{'}}s bow, and half for lost business during repairs. The Italian Line sustained the loss of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s full value, estimated to be $30 million.

A U.S. Congressional hearing was also held, and provided some determinations, notably about the lack of ballasting specified by the builders during the fatal voyage and the resulting lack of seaworthiness of ''Andrea Doria'' after the collision. The Italian Line’s chief lawyer was [[Morgan J. Burke Jr.]], who was awarded the [[Order of Merit of the Italian Republic]] for his efforts.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Hynes |first1=Charles J |author-link1=Charles J.

While heavy fog was given as the primary cause of the accident, and it is not disputed that intermittent and heavy fog are both frequent and challenging conditions for mariners in that part of the ocean, these other factors have been cited:

# ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s officers had not followed proper radar procedures or used the plotting equipment available in the chartroom adjacent to the bridge of their ship to plot and then calculate the course, position and speed of the other (approaching) ship. Thus, they failed to realize ''Stockholm''{{'}}s speed and course.
# ''Andrea Doria'' had not followed the [[International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea#History|long-established]] rule that vessels approaching head-to-head both turn towards the right (to starboard). As ''Stockholm'' turned to starboard, ''Andrea Doria'' turned to port, closing the circle instead of opening it. Beyond a certain point, it became impossible to avoid a collision.
# Captain Calamai of ''Andrea Doria'' was deliberately speeding in heavy fog, an admittedly common practice on passenger liners. The navigation rules required speed to be reduced during periods of limited visibility to a stopping distance within half the distance of visibility. As a practical matter, this would have meant reducing the speed of the ship to virtually zero in the dense fog.
# ''Stockholm'' and ''Andrea Doria'' were experiencing different weather conditions immediately prior to the collision. The collision occurred in an area of the northern Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Massachusetts, where heavy and intermittent fog is common. Although ''Andrea Doria'' had been engulfed in the fog for several hours, ''Stockholm'' had only recently entered the bank and was still acclimating to atmospheric conditions. The officer in charge of ''Stockholm'' incorrectly assumed that his inability to see the other vessel was due to conditions other than fog, such as the other ship being a very small fishing vessel or a 'blacked-out' warship on maneuvers. He testified that he had no idea it was another passenger liner speeding through fog.
# ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s fuel tanks were half empty and not pumped with seawater ballast to stabilize the ship, in accordance with the Italian Line's procedures. This contributed to the pronounced list following the collision, the inability of the crew to pump water into the port fuel tanks to right the ship, and the inability to use the port lifeboats for the evacuation.
# Also, a watertight door may have been missing between bulkheads near the engine room, which was thought to have contributed to ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s problems.
# ''Stockholm''{{'}}s navigating officer misread his radar thinking he was on a {{convert|15|nmi|km|adj=on}} setting when in reality the radar was set for {{convert|5|nmi|km|0}}. Thus, he thought he was farther from ''Andrea Doria'' than he actually was. He also failed to consult his captain as was required by regulation.

Both lines had an incentive to limit the public discussion of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s structural and stability problems. ''Stockholm''{{'}}s owners had another new ship, ''[[MS Gripsholm (1957)|Gripsholm]]'', under construction at [[Ansaldo]] Shipyard in Italy, the same yard that had built ''Andrea Doria''.<ref name="othfors"/> ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s designers and engineers had been scheduled to testify, but the hearings were abruptly concluded before their testimony could be heard due to the settlement agreement.

===Resulting reforms===
The ''Andrea Doria–Stockholm'' collision led to several rule changes in the immediate years following the incident to avoid a recurrence. Since this was essentially a [[radar-assisted collision]] event, in which over-use was made of poorly handled technology,<ref>{{cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nlIYDrgc1ncC&pg=PA228|title=Farwell's Rules of the Nautical Road|isbn=9781591140085|last1=Allen|first1=Craig H.|year=2005|publisher=Naval Institute Press }}</ref> shipping lines were required to improve training on the use of radar equipment. Also, approaching ships were required to make radio contact with one another. Both ships saw each other on their radar systems and attempted to turn. Unfortunately, one of the radar systems was poorly designed, resulting in the collision. Marine craft today are required to turn to starboard (right) in a head-on situation.

===Later investigations and study===
Unanswered questions about the tragedy, and questions of cause and blame, have intrigued observers and haunted survivors for over 50 years. The fact that ''Andrea Doria'' and ''Stockholm'' were speeding in heavy fog (21.8 knots and 18.5 knots, respectively, at the collision)<ref name="Forensic Analysis"/> and questions about their [[Seakeeping|seaworthiness]] arose at the time. Captain Calamai never assumed another command because the Italian Line feared bad publicity. However, largely because the out-of-court settlement agreement between the two shipping companies ended the fact-finding that was taking place in the hearings immediately after the disaster, no resolution of the cause(s) was ever formally accomplished. This has led to continued development of information and a search for greater understanding, aided by newer technologies in over half a century since the disaster.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjtCi2dNXBE|title=Documentario - Il Naufragio dell'Andrea Doria - History Channel|via=www.youtube.com}}</ref>

Recent discoveries using computer animation and newer undersea diving technology have shed additional light on some aspects.
* Many years later, scientific study of the actions of the two crews indicated a probability that the [[third mate]] on ''Stockholm'' misinterpreted his radar in the minutes prior to the impact. Recent studies and computer simulations carried out by Captain Robert J. Meurn of the [[United States Merchant Marine Academy]] and based on the findings of John C. Carrothers suggest ''Stockholm'' Third Officer Carstens-Johannsen misinterpreted radar data and badly overestimated the distance between the two ships. The poor design of the radar settings, coupled with unlighted range settings and a darkened bridge, makes this scenario possible. Some critics have suggested that a simple and available technology, a small light bulb on the radar set aboard ''Stockholm'', might have averted the entire disaster. Instead, he may have unintentionally steered the Swedish ship into a collision with the Italian liner.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2006/07/25/naufragio-andrea-doria-ultima-verita.html|title=Naufragio Andrea Doria, l' ultima verità - la Repubblica.it|website=Archivio - la Repubblica.it|date=25 July 2006 }}</ref><ref>[https://www.rainews.it/dl/rainews/media/25-luglio-1956-affonda-il-transatlantico-Andrea-Doria-3993e45b-24f1-4376-bee5-9fda860b0cfb.html#foto-1 RaiNews] - [[RAI]]</ref>

* "...In maritime navigation, all collision avoidance manoeuvres are made based on the Collision Regulations COLREG. Although these rules have helped in managing the maritime traffic and also advised every vessel about the collision avoidance manoeuvres that need to be taken in every situation, they have not stopped accidents from happening (Demirel and Bayer, 2015; Lušić and Erceg, 2008). After a deep study of the COLREG a number of issues that can cause a hassle and confusion for the OOW (Officer On Watch) were identified (Belcher, 2002; Demirel and Bayer, 2015; Szlapczynski and Szlapczynska, 2015; Wylie, 1962)..."

Due to the luxurious appointments and initially good condition of the wreck, with the top of the wreck lying initially in 160&nbsp;feet (50&nbsp;m) of water, ''Andrea Doria'' has been a frequent target of treasure divers. It is commonly referred to as the "[[Mount Everest]] of [[scuba diving]]."<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.midwestscubadiving.com/Blog/2009/4/1/THE-ANDREA-DORIA-MOUNT-EVEREST-OF-SPORT-DIVING |title=The Andrea Doria "Mount Everest" of Sport Diving |work=midwestscubadiving.com |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140204025049/http://www.midwestscubadiving.com/Blog/2009/4/1/THE-ANDREA-DORIA-MOUNT-EVEREST-OF-SPORT-DIVING |archive-date=4 February 2014}}</ref> The comparison to Mt. Everest originated after a July 1983 dive on ''Andrea Doria'' by Capt. Alvin Golden during a CBS News-televised interview of the divers following their return from a dive expedition to the wreck aboard the R/V ''Wahoo''. The depth, water temperature, and currents combine to put the wreck beyond the scope of recreational diving. The skills and equipment required to successfully execute this dive, such as use of mixed gases and staged decompression, put it in the realm of only the most experienced [[Technical diving|technical divers]]. The wreck is located near {{Coord|40|29.408|N|69|51.046|W|scale:3000000|display=inline}}.<ref name=DiveCoord>{{cite web|title=Dive Site Atlas, Andrea Doria, USA, Massachusetts|url=http://www.wannadive.net/spot/North_America/USA/Massachusetts/Andrea_Doria/index.html|publisher=annadive.net|access-date=28 March 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20211009022502/http://www.andreadoria.org/TheDeep/LifeDivers/Life%20Divers.htm|archive-date=2021-10-09}}</ref>

A week after ''Andrea Doria'' sank, divers [[Peter Gimbel]] and [[Joseph Fox (diver)|Joseph Fox]] managed to locate the wreck of the ship, and published pictures of the wreck in [[Life (magazine)|''Life'']].<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.andreadoria.org/TheDeep/LifeDivers/Life%20Divers.htm|title=Andrea Doria-Life Magazine Divers|work=andreadoria.org}}</ref>

In 1968, film director Bruno Vailati, together with Stefano Carletti, Mimi Dies, Arnaldo Mattei, and Al Giddings (an experienced American diver), organized and directed the first Italian expedition to the wreck, producing the documentary titled ''Andrea Doria -74''. The wreck was marked with a bronze plaque with the inscription: "We came here to work to make the dream come true and return the ''Andrea Doria'' to the light".<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.hdsitalia.com/articoli/20_andreadoria.pdf |title=Andrea Doria|access-date=14 July 2013|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20150924025340/http://www.hdsitalia.com/articoli/20_andreadoria.pdf |archive-date=24 September 2015}}</ref>

Peter Gimbel later conducted a number of salvage operations on the ship, including salvaging the first-class bank safe in 1981. Despite speculation that passengers had deposited many valuables, the safe, opened on live television in 1984, yielded thousands of American silver certificates, Canadian bank notes, American Express travellers checks, and Italian bank notes, but no other valuables. This outcome apparently confirmed other speculation that most ''Andrea Doria'' passengers, in anticipation of the ship's scheduled arrival in New York City the following morning, had already retrieved their valuables prior to the collision.

Evelyn Bartram Dudas (22) was the first woman to successfully dive onto ''Andrea Doria''. Dudas reached the wreck in June 1967; she and her future husband, John Dudas, retrieved the ship's compass.<ref>{{cite web |url= http://articles.philly.com/2009-07-26/news/25288732_1_nitrogen-narcosis-john-dudas-andrea-doria |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20120805052316/http://articles.philly.com/2009-07-26/news/25288732_1_nitrogen-narcosis-john-dudas-andrea-doria |url-status= dead |archive-date= 5 August 2012 |title=Call her the diva of diving Evelyn Dudas, a |work=philly-archives}}</ref> Other well-known divers to explore the ''Andrea Doria'' are Steve Belinda, [[John Chatterton]], [[Gary Gentile]], Gary Gilligan, [[Richie Kohler]] and [[John Mattera]].<ref name="Kurson, Robert 2015">Kurson, Robert (2015). Pirate Hunters. Random House. {{ISBN|9781400063369}}.</ref>

As of 2010, years of ocean submersion have taken their toll. The wreck has aged and deteriorated extensively, with the hull now fractured and collapsed. The upper decks have slowly slid off the wreck to the seabed below. As a result of this transformation, a large debris field flows out from the hull of the liner. Once-popular access points frequented by divers, such as Gimbel's hole, no longer exist. Divers call ''Andrea Doria'' a "noisy" wreck, as it emits various noises due to continual deterioration and from the ocean currents moving broken metal around inside the hull. However, due to this decay, new access areas are constantly opening up for future divers on the ever-changing wreck.

A 2016 expedition to the wreck by [[OceanGate]] revealed that ''Andrea Doria'' was decaying rapidly. "When you look at the shape of the hull, it appears a lot has come off," [[Stockton Rush]], OceanGate's CEO, said. One of the pieces now broken off the wreck is the ship's bow.<ref>{{cite news |last=Beck |first=Christina |date=14 June 2016 |title=New images reveal Andrea Doria shipwreck deteriorating quickly |url= http://www.csmonitor.com/Science/2016/0614/New-images-reveal-Andrea-Doria-shipwreck-deteriorating-quickly-video |work=Christian Science Monitor |place=Boston, MA |access-date=20 May 2017}}</ref> During dives using the ''Cyclops 1'' submersible, owned by [[OceanGate]] and piloted by Stockton Rush, damage was caused to the ''Andrea Doria'' after direct collision on the port side of the bow. <ref>{{Cite web |last=Casey |first=Susan |date=2023-08-17 |title=The ‘Titan’ Submersible Disaster Was Years in the Making, New Details Reveal |url=https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2023/08/titan-submersible-implosion-warnings |access-date=2024-09-17 |website=Vanity Fair |language=en-US}}</ref><ref>{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u4QNefgKRd0&feature=youtu.be |title=Titan Submersible Hearings |date=2024-09-17 |last=WCBD NEWS 2 |access-date=2024-09-17 |via=YouTube}}</ref>

After years of removal of artifacts by divers, little of value was thought to remain. Significant artifacts recovered include the statue of Genoese Admiral [[Andrea Doria]], for whom the ship was named. It was removed from the first-class lounge, having been cut off at the ankles to accomplish this. Examples of the ship's china have long been considered valuable mementos of diving the wreck. The ship's bell is normally considered to be the prize of a wreck. This ship carried three bells: one bell located on the bridge, and two much larger ceremonial bells located on the fore and aft decks. The ship's stern bell was retrieved in the late 1980s by a team of divers led by [[Bill Nagle]].<ref>[[Robert Kurson|Kurson, Robert]]: ''[[Shadow Divers]]'', Alfred A. Knopf Publishing, 2004</ref> On 26 June 2010,<ref>Chung, G. (28 June 2010). [http://www.nj.com/news/index.ssf/2010/06/nj_divers_discover_andrea_dori.html ''Andrea Doria'' bridge bell is recovered from famed shipwreck by NJ divers.] ''The Star-Ledger'', p. 1.</ref> a diver from New Jersey, Carl Bayer, diving from the Narragansett, Rhode Island–based dive boat EXPLORER, owned by Capt. Dave Sutton, discovered the bridge bell lying on the bottom at {{cvt|241|ft|order=flip}}. He recovered it with assistance from Ernie Rookey, also from New Jersey. The bell, {{cvt|16|in|order=flip}} tall and weighing {{cvt|73.5|lb|order=flip}}, was possibly used to signal fog on the night of the collision. The forward bell remains undiscovered. It has for years been thought to be in the ship's paint locker where it was stored during ocean crossings, but recent reports indicate that this part of the ship has collapsed in on itself and the forward bell may never be found.

In 2017 a salvage team recovered one of the ship's two foghorns.  In July 2021 the restored foghorn was sounded  at the [[New Jersey Maritime Museum]] to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the sinking.<ref>{{cite news |last=Radel |first=Dan |date=27 July 2021 |title=Andrea Doria foghorn blasts from Beach Haven, 65 years after it sank in the murky sea |url=https://www.app.com/story/news/history/2021/07/27/andrea-doria-foghorn-blasts-beach-haven-65-years-after-sank/8055327002/|work=Asbury Park Press |place=Asbury Park, New Jersey |access-date=19 August 2021}}</ref>

===Deaths===
Artifact recovery on ''Andrea Doria'' has resulted in additional loss of life. At least 22 scuba divers have lost their lives diving on the wreck,<ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.njscuba.net/sites/site_andrea_doria.html |access-date=26 July 2006 |title=New Jersey Scuba Diver – Dive Sites – Andrea Doria |url-status=dead |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20060702052211/http://www.njscuba.net/sites/site_andrea_doria.html|archive-date=2 July 2006}}</ref> and diving conditions at the wreck site are considered very treacherous. Strong currents and heavy sediment that can reduce visibility to zero pose serious hazards to diving this site. Dr. [[Robert Ballard]] (who found the wrecks of the ocean liner {{RMS|Titanic}}, the {{Ship|German battleship|Bismarck}}, and the American aircraft carrier {{USS|Yorktown|CV-5|2}} and torpedo boat {{Ship|Motor Torpedo Boat|PT-109||2}}) who visited the site in a US Navy submersible in 1995, reported that thick fishing nets draped the hull. An invisible web of thin fishing lines, which can snag scuba gear, increases danger. The wreck is slowly collapsing; the top of the wreck is now at {{convert|190|ft|m|order=flip}}, and many of the passageways have begun to collapse.

The wreck site is nicknamed "The Everest of Wreck Diving" because of the number of deaths exploring the site.<ref>[https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-43644986 Gateshead diver Steven Slater died after 'rapid ascent' from shipwreck], [[BBC News Online]], published 4 April 2018; Accessed 13 April 2018</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ricerca.repubblica.it/repubblica/archivio/repubblica/2006/07/25/everest-dei-sommozzatori-quattordici-vittime.html|title=È l' Everest dei sommozzatori quattordici vittime dal 1956 a oggi - la Repubblica.it|website=Archivio - la Repubblica.it|date=25 July 2006 }}</ref>

===MS ''Stockholm''===
''Stockholm''{{'}}s bow was replaced in New York at a cost of $1 million. As of 2016, the former ''Stockholm'' sailed as {{MV|Astoria}} and her current status is 'to be scrapped' <ref>{{cite web |url= http://www.faktaomfartyg.se/stockholm_1948.htm |title=M/S Stockholm (1948) |access-date=7 March 2019 |last=Asklander |first=Micke |work=Fakta om Fartyg |language=sv}}</ref>

===Survivors===
Survivors went on with their lives with a wide range of experiences. Captain Calamai never accepted another command, and lived the rest of his life in sadness "as a man who has lost a son", according to his daughter. Most of the other officers returned to the sea. Some survivors had mental problems for years after the incident, while others felt their experience had helped them value their lives more preciously.

====Music====
In 1969 Polish rock band Niebiesko-Czarni with singer Wojciech Korda recorded the song "Andrea Doria"

In 1973, German singer [[Udo Lindenberg]] published an album titled ''Alles klar auf der Andrea Doria'' (All's Well on the ''Andrea Doria''), containing a song of the same name.

The liner is also referenced in the Steely Dan song "Things I Miss The Most" from their 2003 album ''[[Everything Must Go (Steely Dan album)|Everything Must Go]]''.

In 1986 Brazilian rock band [[Legião Urbana]] recorded the song "Andrea Doria" in their second album ''[[Dois (album)|Dois]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://olivrodosdias-interpretacao.blogspot.com/2011/09/interpretacao-andrea-doria_09.html|title=Interpretação: Andrea Doria}}</ref>

====Books====
The liner is mentioned in more than 500 of the many written biographies of [[Elvis Presley]], because one of the survivors was Mike Stoller of the songwriting team [[Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller]]. As Stoller reached the port of New York, Leiber informed him at the main dock that their 1952 composition "Hound Dog", a [[Record chart#Chart hit|number one]] R&B record for [[Big Mama Thornton]], was once more and right there and then, the number one record in the nation in all three charts: R&B, Pop and C&W, albeit this time "by a young Mississippian by the name of Elvis Presley". Stoller, who had been in Europe for over 10 months, did not know who Presley was, so he asked Leiber the now famous "Elvis who?". They would go on to write several more number one hits, including two written exclusively for Presley, "[[Don't (Elvis Presley song)|Don't]]", a number one in early 1958, as well as the title song and most of the soundtrack for Presley's third movie, the 1957 MGM production of the mega hit "[[Jailhouse Rock (song)|Jailhouse Rock]]".

The liner is also mentioned often in the book Shadow Divers by Robert Kurson. This true story talks about many of the divers that dove on the Andrea Doria and about some of their dives.

=====Fiction=====
In the 1969 adventure novel ''[[The Poseidon Adventure (novel)|The Poseidon Adventure]]'', the ''Andrea Doria'''s collision with ''Stockholm'' and resulting sinking are briefly mentioned by Hubert Miller, who compares the capsizing of SS Poseidon to that of ''Andrea Doria''.

In [[Tom Clancy]]'s ''[[Red Storm Rising]]'', a {{sclass|Victor|submarine}} stakes out a New York-to-Europe convoy intended to reinforce NATO against a Soviet attack by sitting next to the wreck of ''Andrea Doria'' – hoping to confuse [[magnetic anomaly detector]] readings. {{USS|Reuben James|FFG-57|6}} and {{HMS|Battleaxe|F89|6}}, working in conjunction, use their helicopters to find and destroy the submarine.

In [[Clive Cussler]]'s [[Serpent (novel)|''Serpent'']] (1999), the ''Andrea Doria'' was purposely sunk by the secret organization called the "Brotherhood" to hide the fact of pre-Columbian contact of Mayans and Europe made by [[Phoenicians]]. The liner was carrying a large stone tablet that was essential to find out the long lost Phoenician treasure.

''I Was Shipwrecked on the Andrea Doria! The Titanic of the 1950s'' was written by survivor Pierette Domenica Simpson.<ref>{{cite book |first=Pierette Domenica |last=Simpson |title=I Was Shipwrecked on the Andrea Doria! The Titanic of the 1950s |asin=B007KNAO6A}}</ref>

=====Non-fiction=====
Several books have been written about the ''Andrea Doria''. Each presented information not contained in the others, thereby providing varying perspectives.
* The story of the accident was retold by Alvin Moscow in his book ''Collision Course: The Story of the Collision Between the 'Andrea Doria' and the 'Stockholm'', published in 1959.
* ''Ile de France''{{'}}s Captain Raoul de Beaudéan's memoirs were translated and published in the US in 1960, under the title ''Captain of the Ile'' by McGraw Hill Book Company; its Chapter 12, titled "A Tragic Night", covers the rescue of the passengers of the ''Andrea Doria''.
* Author William Hoffer's ''Saved: the Story of the Andrea Doria – The Greatest Sea Rescue in History'' was published in 1979.
* The 2002 book ''[[Deep Descent: Adventure and Death Diving the Andrea Doria]] {{ISBN|0-74-340063-1}},'' by Kevin F. McMurray recounts diving the wreck and some of the incidents that have led to divers' deaths.
* In 2003, Richard Goldstein wrote ''Desperate Hours: The Epic Rescue of the Andrea Doria''.
* In 2004, ''[[Shadow Divers]],'' by [[Robert Kurson]], provides accounts of wreckage divers at the site as a precursor to the book's main story.
* The 2005 book "The Lost Ships of Robert Ballard" by [[Robert Ballard]], and Rick Archbold (with paintings by [[Ken Marschall]]) has a chapter about the liner and its sinking.
* The most recent, ''Alive on the Andrea Doria: The Greatest Sea Rescue in History'', is by survivor Pierette Domenica Simpson in 2006.<ref>{{cite book |url= http://www.pierettesimpson.com/ |title=Alive on the Andrea Doria: The Greatest Sea Rescue in History |first=Pierette Domenica |last=Simpson}}</ref>

====Onscreen and online====
=====Films and videos=====
* Several documentaries have been produced. These include works by [[National Geographic Channel]], [[PBS]] ''Secrets of the Dead'', [[Discovery Channel]], [[History (U.S. TV channel)|History Channel]], and others.
* A seminarian from the Archdiocese of Chicago interviewed two priests and a retired bishop, survivors of the ''Andrea Doria'', and subsequently produced an oral history presentation titled ''Voices from the Andrea Doria'', which can be accessed online.<ref>{{cite AV media|url=http://vimeo.com/33910689|title=Voices from the Andrea Doria|work=Vimeo}}</ref>
* ''[[On the Waterfront]]'' (1954, by [[Elia Kazan]]) is the only film in which ''Andrea Doria'' is visible; in a scene, Terry Malloy (played by [[Marlon Brando]]) watches the ship as she descends the [[Hudson River]].
* The [[The Andrea Doria (Seinfeld)|144th episode]] of the sitcom ''[[Seinfeld]]'' featured ''Andrea Doria'' as a plot device when the character [[George Costanza|George]] goes up against an ''Andrea Doria'' survivor to become the [[Lease|lessee]] of an apartment, and it is revealed that the character [[Cosmo Kramer|Kramer]] owns a book detailing oceanic wrecks and has extensive knowledge of the Andrea Doria.
* In ''[[Superman: The Animated Series]]'', season 2 episode 17, which aired in 1997, a painting of the ''Andrea Doria'' can be seen on the wall behind Lois Lane while she is on a telephone call with Clark Kent. The ''Doria'' is depicted in an abstract fashion with nighttime Manhattan recognisible in the background. The painting is based on the same photograph used for the cover of historian William Miller's book "Picture History of the Andrea Doria".
* In the episode "Spanakopita" of the animated series ''[[The Venture Bros.]]'', a safe from ''Andrea Doria'' is shown housed within a ship, owned by the villain, Augustus St. Cloud, among other various movie memorabilia such as the golden idol and stone pedestal from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]''.
* In the ''[[Night Gallery]]'' episode "Lone Survivor", the crew of the {{RMS|Lusitania||6}} picks up a lifeboat from the {{RMS|Titanic||6}} on 7 May 1915, three years after ''Titanic'' sank. A man in the lifeboat claims to have supernaturally survived the wreck as a kind of human ''[[Flying Dutchman]]'' and tries, without success, to convince ''Lusitania''{{'}}s captain to alter course to avoid [[Sinking of the RMS Lusitania|the torpedo attack]] he foresees. On 26 July 1956, the man is found again in a ''Lusitania'' lifeboat, this time by the crew of the ''Andrea Doria''.
* The 2002 horror film ''[[Ghost Ship (2002 film)|Ghost Ship]]'' features the fictional Italian luxury liner ''Antonia Graza'', whose design was based on that of ''Andrea Doria''. This was mentioned in the special feature clips on the film's DVD release.
* Luca Guardabascio directed the 2016 docufilm ''Andrea Doria: Are the Passengers Saved?'' based on Pierette Domenica Simpson's non-fiction book, ''Alive on the Andrea Doria! The Greatest Sea Rescue in History''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4624646/plotsummary|title=Andrea Doria: Are the Passengers Saved? (2016) - IMDb|via=www.imdb.com}}</ref>
*The action-adventure video game, ''[[Tomb Raider II]]'', features a cluster of levels set in the wreck of an Italian cruise liner named ''The Maria Doria'', implied to be a ''[[Sister ship]]'' to the ''Andrea Doria''.
*In the film ''[[The Talented Mr. Ripley (film)|The Talented Mr. Ripley]]'' the launch that carries Herbert Greenleaf and Marge Sherwood away from Tom Ripley in Venice is called ''Andrea Doria''.

====Photography====
Photographer Robert F. McCrystal, from the ''Providence Journal'', was the first to photograph the fatally struck ''Andrea Doria'' from an airplane. One of his photographs ran on the cover of ''LIFE'' Magazine.

Boston newspaper photographer [[Harry A. Trask]], who arrived at the scene in a small airplane after many media people had left, took a series of photographs of ''Andrea Doria''{{'}}s final moments above water, which won a [[Pulitzer Prize]].<ref name="heraldtribune"/>
