A replica of the ill-fated ship Titanic is set to sail in 2022, following the same route as the original ship, while boasting of an “authentic Titanic experience.”
Spearheaded by Australian mining tycoon Clive Palmer, shipping company Blue Star Line announced its plans to have the Titanic II completed and sailing within the next four years.
quote:
The planned $500-million replica will be built to the same size dimensions of the Titanic, and will carry over 2,400 passengers and about 500 crew members.
This time around, Titanic II will have enough lifeboats for everyone onboard in the event of a tragedy. According to Blue Line, the ship will have 18 fully enclosed, motor driven lifeboats, each with a capacity of up to 250 people.
quote:
“The ship will follow the original journey, carrying passengers from Southampton to New York, but she will also circumnavigate the globe, inspiring and enchanting people while attracting unrivalled attention, intrigue and mystery in every port she visits,” Palmer said. “In 1912 the Titanic was the ship of dreams. For over a century Titanic’s legend has been powered by mystery, intrigue and respect for all she stood for.”
They do not plan on running into an ice berg, well hopefully not.

I feel like this is the 5th time they've announced something like this the past 15 years.

Just a reminder that the bitch in the movie had room on the door, but instead let Leo die.

Without the part where everybody dies, it just wouldn’t be the same.

Damn, for some reason seeing a ship that size gives me anxiety. I can't imagine being out at sea with that many people

Is it going to be packed full of immigrants?

Hopefully they decided to cap the bulkheads this time.
Unless they’re going for the ultra authentic experience.

Pretty sure global warming took care of all the ice cubes floating in the ocean.
