The ship was fantastic: an amazing feat of engineering and style, and she was fine when she left Belfast. Look at the career her sister, RMS Olympic had. I’d like to think we’re celebrating the engineering achievement rather than an over-confident Captain sailing her into an ice field at full speed.
I see your point and I don’t disagree with you on principal… but doesn’t it kinda prove my point that they didn’t make this a celebration of the RMS Olympic for example? I’m fully aware that the Olympic is less famous and would therefore draw less attention from the public, but still, this just reinforces the one (and sometimes only) thing that people know about the Titanic; big boat was big but now is sunk
