text:
SS Orteric was a Bank Line cargo and passenger steamship that was built in Scotland in 1910–11 and sunk by a U-boat in the Mediterranean Sea in 1915. In 1911 she took 960 Spanish and 565 Portuguese migrants to Hawaii to work on the sugar plantations. She was the first of two Bank Line ships that were called Orteric. The second was built in England in 1919 for the United Kingdom Shipping Controller as War Coral. Andrew Weir & Co bought her and renamed her Orteric. She was wrecked in 1922.
