I’m building one of those too. To prove it I got a teenager to make a 3D video. Totally. It will be sailing in 2021. Buy your tickets now.
next up; the hindenburg ii.
-—If it is a true replica I would imagine that it would be very expensive and uncomfortable. ——
In a way, yes. I’d assume you’d know what you were getting when you bought a ticket.
They could make steerage cheap to push the authenticity up another notch. I’d sail in a steerage cabin if it was relatively inexpensive, just for the experience of doing it.
It’s not a traditional cruise, so a lot of people would be attracted to the “once in a lifetime” factor.
They would need a huge manatee.
Will it have enough life boats for all the passengers? Or will it have the same number as the original Titanic?
I love that film. So underrated.
With all the naming rights licensing for sports venues such as “Guaranteed Rate Field” and so on, why not sell the name as
Democrat Party Titanic II.
Works for me.
It was discovered in the Nineties that the steel used on Titanic had a high sulfur content. It wouldn't have even made for good rebar. The hull was already brittle enough without the freezing water temperature wrecking further havoc with it.
Had the steel been up to standard, Titanic might well have made it to port safely.
Will they have a replica iceberg?
“Might put a Rose and Jack on board,”
10:1 there will be a group of cosplay folks in period garb on this voyage.
And will they have coal fired boilers? If so, they will have to survive the anti-coal protesters and probably pay premium wages to whomever they can find to shovel the coal from the storage bunkers into the boiler furnaces.
-—And will they have coal fired boilers?-—
My assumption is that the areas of the ship passengers get to see are vintage authentic, while crew and other areas are modern. That includes the engine room, I’m guessing. lol
Hopefully they will only retrace the horizontal portions...
I think I’ll just wait for the Hindenburg 2 before I make my first transatlantic crossing... Such a difficult decision though... Freezing to death in the Atlantic, or burning to death in New Jersey.
I’d bring 497 1/2 feet of rope along just in case...
Should be renamed Titanic III. The title of Titanic II belongs to the unending Crooked Hillary presidential campaign.
Can we guy up all the tickets and GIFT them to some selected dems?
A few years ago while in Las Vegas, we went to the Titanic Exhibit. They had mock-ups of the various cabins. A first class cabin/state room that the Astor’s were assigned to was about the size of a second bedroom in most normal houses and the bed was only a full size. I remember the plaque saying that room would cost a passenger over $20,000 of today’s dollars.
It doesn’t make any sense to replicate those in a modern cruise liner...
LOL. That’s very true. :D
