USS
CIMARRON was the lead ship of a class of five fleet oilers.
Since decommissioning the ship is situated at the Suisun Bay
Reserve Fleet in Benicia, CA. It is there that she sits at
anchor awaiting her final fate.
|

Despite
sitting at anchor, I found that the ship is in good shape. Her
interior spaces are clean and intact. Power is available to
the ship via shore power. Many of the ships books & manuals
are still onboard.
|

Many
attempts have been made to save Cimarron, including sale to
another country for continued use. However due to the ships
single hull design, her status remains uncertain. The only
information I have been able to get is that she is on hold
status for now and if she cannot be used she will more than
likely be broken up. |
