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 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?
