Re: the newer titanic.
wills, thatnkyou ofr sharing it does work quite well. Titanic 2012? I wonder how people are going to feel about that. Personally I have wanted them to come up with some kind of design that would have been similar to the actual titanic design. I doubt it would look half as good though/ the wooden interior would not be allowed today the fire marshall would have a field day with safety citations, but i think it would be intereesting to see if it happens.

Re: the newer titanic.
yeh too many safety restrictions that would pretty much change the entire make up of the ship.

Re: the newer titanic.
Hi All
May I be a spoil sport here for a moment.
First there is no truth to the rumour that Titanic 2 will be built. in fact it has been completely withdrawn.
But It would be possable to re build her. If the ship was sea worthy there is nothing wrong in the original desighn. It has been done with older ships and gun boats. The only compliance they have to do is more boats etc. Materials can be used as in the old one and I am involved in a very large project with such a thing. Not titanic though

Re: the newer titanic.
I feel like the petunias in Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy - "OH, God, not again!"
Can we not just let the poor ship die? There isn't going to be a Titanic II, for so many reasons it's not funny, and I know they've been enumerated somewhere on this board already! (I know because I enumerated them!) Enough!

Re: the newer titanic.
i know it is a bad thing that they are not going build a new titanic ...it would definately be something to see her gliding across the water.

Re: the newer titanic.
Hi All
In a sence it is a bad thing we will never see the likes of Titanic again. But in another surely it is a good thing.
Nothng is the same second time around, Try going back to a place you loved when young and see what it is like now. I have many times and would not go back again.
Like I said I am involved in a few major projects at the minuet and they are hard work. To re build something that was a long time ago in the same way with the same plans etc. is hard

Re: the newer titanic.
Not to mention you can't get funding, as you can't make a profit by it.
