It's a new life for a history-making vessel. The SS United States, which set the record for the fastest ocean liner in 1952. The age of Atlantic crossings ended, and the SS US couldn't find a new purpose on the sea. But it's about to set an undersea record when it becomes the World's Largest Artificial Reef.

We speak with Nick Tomecek of Okaloosa County about what the project means for the ship, tourism, fishing, diving and the community.
