SS Dwinsk was a transatlantic ocean liner that was launched in Ireland in 1897 as Rotterdam, renamed C. F. Tietgen in 1906, and renamed Dwinsk in 1913. A U-boat sank her in 1918, with the loss of 23 lives. The ship was built for Holland America Line (Nederlandsch-Amerikaansche Stoomvaart Maatschappij, or NASM), but was successively owned by Scandinavian America Line and Russian American Line, and after the Russian Revolution she was managed by Cunard Line.
She was the third of several NASM ships to be named after the city of Rotterdam. She was also the first ship that Harland & Wolff built for NASM.
