MacKitoiey (B W), core I, designed and manufactured by B W for the N. S. Savannah passenger cargo ship, was installed, and checked as a complete nuclear unit at the Com y Critical Experiment Laboratory in February I960. Figure 1 is a photograph of the core. The fuel consists of UQi pellets in stainless steel tubes. The outer 16 cans are filled with 4.6% U-235 and the inner 16 cans are filled with 4.2% U-235. 

Launched ia 1959, N. A. Savannah operated very weU. Starting ia 1962, it made a goodwill voyage around the world. It was able to travel a distance of several times the earth s circumference on one fuel loading. However, the ship was not competitive economically with oil-powered merchant ships. The shielding was quite adequate, so that the reactor was safe. Nonetheless the vessel was opposed by antinuclear groups and the N.A. Savannah was eventually retired and put on display ia Charleston, South Carolina. In 1994, the ship was transferred to Norfolk, Virginia, to be held ia reserve.
