The SS Savannah, built in 1818. was the first steamship to cross the Atlantic, in early summer of the following year, 1819. Savannah was a hybrid, part sail and part steam-powered side-wheeler, and did not cross entirely under steam. The first two to cross entirely under steam were the Sirius and the Great Western, in 1838, who ran a competitive race from England to New York. The Sirius arrived only a few hours ahead of the Great Western. The two are credited with inaugurating regular transatlantic steam service.
