If all boats were taken out the sea, what wud happen 2 the sea levels?
The Royal Mail Steamer (RMS) Titanic was actually one of three Olympic Class Ships built for the White Star Line (the other two were the RMS Olympic and HMHS Britannic). In fact, the HMHS Britannic was not only built after the RMS Titanic, it was launched nearly two years after the Titanic's sinking. However, The HMHS Britannic didn't last long either, as it was sunk by a mine on November 21, 1916. While technically the HMHS Britannic was launched as a Hospital ship for the First World War, it could be safely assumed that, had the ship survived, it would have been converted back to an ocean-liner and served along side its sister ship the RMS Olympic doing Trans-Atlantic voyages.I was given this address-Palauaggressor@seawave.net I can't reach it.

They have made much larger ships then the titanic since then. It was just the largest ship of its time. I think.What is special about an Aristocraft?
Because the first one went so well.Seriously, though, they didn't need to. The luxury liners that run today dwarf the Titanic.
Help! Does anyone here live on a boat?
Because they were tied up in investigations for years afterwards. And when that was done, who would sail on a shipped named "Titanic" after knowing the disaster of the first one? People were a lot more superstitious then.didnt you already asked this question?
if you really want an answer...the transverse bulkheads on the Titanic didn't reach to the deck above them. this allowed water to eventually flow to every compartment to the stern. i.e., SINK! we learn from history, hopefully. after that fiasco, all compartments on ships were built watertight. ps...1st is maiden. hope this helps.
how is a boat sailed against the wind?
Superstition is the main reason for not re-using the name. Would YOU want to travel on her?What is the country with the second largest land area on South America?
She did have two very similar "sister" ships, though, the Olympic and the Brittanic.
Where on the boat is the stern?
The Olympic (Built before Titanic) lasted out her life, including service as troop transport (she once ran into a U-boat. The sub came off worse...), and was nicknamed "Old Reliable", despite a few collision incidents. She was eventually broken down for scrap in the mid-thirties.
what are the job titles held at a container port? the person who locks container ships and unlo?
The Brittanic (built after Titanic), sadly, sank after hitting a mine in 1916 while being used as a hospital ship during the first world war. Although many design improvements were made over the Titanic, they weren't enough to stop her from going down - famous diver Jaques Cousteau discovered her wreck's location in the seventies.
