Just imagine peering through the port hole of the submersible at the pitch black atlantic and then suddenly the bow of the worlds greatest ship appears. It would be fantastic but frustrating at the same time as the realisation that she will soon be gone hits home, plus I would want to touch her. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Capt Smith)Wed, 25 Nov 2009 17:14:03 +0000 Re: If you could dive to the wreck, would you?https://btomdyerstitanicsitecommunity.runboard.com/p165615,from=rss#post165615https://btomdyerstitanicsitecommunity.runboard.com/p165615,from=rss#post165615If I was offered a chance to dive Titanic I would definitely say yes.
