The historic boat The Titanic is making it’s come back. In 2022 or 2021 the new replica of The Titanic should be ready to set sail. Clive Palmer, an Australian businessman had stated in September this year that The Titanic will be making its return and that this time the boat will really be indestructible. Technically this should be called The Titanic IIII because the original Titanic had two twin boats named Olympic and The Britannic. Olympic wasn’t actually built to set sail but The Britannic was and it sunk just like the original. The idea of this replica was first thought of in 2012 but after a dispute with the Chinese government it was put to a stop in 2015. However we now have the money and are able to build the ship. The ship is currently in China where it is being built. The boat will set start out in China, then to Dubai, and lastly England. Though this ship is built as a replica a few things have been changed. For instance it can hold more people than the original. The new ship can hold 2,400 passengers plus a 900 person crew. The new boat is thirteen feet wider than the original to increase stability. Not to mention the new boat is equipped with updated navigation features and special precautions.
If you could, would you go on the new Titanic?
Do you think it is a good or bad idea to make another Titanic?
How do you think someone thought to make another Titanic?

1. - Yes I would like to go on this Titanic, knowing and hoping that the technologies were new and safety regulations were better then I would love to go back in history and get a since of what it was like then.
2. - I do think it is a good idea to make a second one, just because it would be fun and it would be a good place to learn about the ships history and how it sank and it would bring a whole new perspective to people sailing on a ship of that size.
3. - They might've just been history lovers, or Titanic historians and they wanted to commemerate the history of the ship and not only that, but they probably realized that a good profit could be made off of it too...not that that was nesscearily the point, but in the end it would be interesting to see a ship like that sail again.
I would deffinetly ride on the new Titanic becasue its such beatiful boat and it would be a great experiance. I think its good becasue the boat is a freat history icon and what better way to remeber than to make a new and improved one. Someone probably watched the movie and said oh that was great lets make one that wont sink.
I wouldn't go on the Titanic if I could. First of all I would because of the price, I would much rather spend my money on a tropical vacation instead of a cold atlantic ocean trip. Also I would probably get bad vibes knowing that the first ship sank and killed a hundreds of people. My other reason I would not want to go on this trip is because I’m not a fan of dressing up in a suit.
I would go on the new titanic because I have never been on a ship before and I think it would be a cool experience even though it might not be the original I still think that it would be awesome. I don't think it is a bad idea unless they take an unsafe route and end up hitting an iceberg and sinking the ship, but otherwise, I don't think it is a bad idea.
I think I would go onto the new Titanic because it would be really cool and an awesome expirence. It's not going to be exactly the same as the original but it would still be very cool. I don't think it's neccesarily a bad idea as long as the route is safe and the boat is obviously more high tech so it'd be safer. Possibly from the original because its so iconic and historical and to recreate one in our day and time it would be an amazing oppurtunity.
Yes, I would love to go on the new Titanic. Because the reason the old one crashed and sank to the bottom of the ocean was human error not stuctural entegrity ruining a ship. Plus today with radar I have complete trust in a boat now adays. I think that it is a good idea for whoever will be making the money and the marketing behind naming it is extremely smart because of the media attention it will get.
They proably thought of the wow factor and money that could be made from the name. People will want to go onto this ship and will pay lots of money to do so. This would be a perfect marketing point by just bringing up the name Titanic and unsinkable in the same sentence.
I don't think it would be a bad idea if it was just for show. Although it is a voyage into the Pacific, and the seas it is going to cross aren't always the safest. Huge storms, and other natural events I feel would just be terrifying due to the historic name of a sunken ship.
I agree with your setement there. If the new Titanic were more liek it's sister The Olympic, just a modeled replica used for information and learning, it would be wonderful.
I would not go onto the new Titanic. If it is built almost the exact same than the one before it probably has the same structural flaws of the original one. While I do see the pros of the voyage seeing as it is a cruise ship, I also am superstitious of the new Titanic.
