    This is awful! The coal bunkers were not located in the center of the ship. What kind of heck talk is this? Nice tie. The coal bunkers were located along both walls in a longitudinal arrangement to in theory protect the machines in between. This was mandated by the British government who was putting the building money upfront for this ship. How can the suppose experts appear with a straight face here? The very definition of ignorance… Thinking you know.

    Wow! We just booked voyager of the seas, our first time cruise, we saw reviews saying it’s one of the older and smaller ships. I felt a little disappointed at first.. but it’s crazy to think that a mere 23-24 years ago it was the worlds largest ship! I wanted to go on a cruise so bad when I was a kid and this ship came out when I was about 10. This changes my perspective completely. I’m basically living the high life my parents couldn’t afford when I was a kid 😂❤ and the documentary says they are competing with Disney… that makes sense since we decided to cruise with our children because it looked like a fun vacation that was a lot more affordable than Disney world. We are so excited to go!

    Go Dive Marlborough (not affiliated but I love those guys!) offer almost all TDI training courses there - you won't find a better place to do TDI Advanced Wreck with real-world siltouts, something everyone NEEDS to experience to realise what 'zero viz' means and just how long it takes to settle, but to do it in total safety. RIP Pavel Zaglyadimov.

  • @Nightshadow643

    It truly is one of the world's best wreck dives because it's accessible to EVERYONE. At just 14m to the port side, someone fresh out of their OW course can traverse the entire ship in bright lighting, looking into 1st class cabins on the Promenade deck, and safely traverse the large, open, bright Bolshoi lounge with open windows and exits everywhere. But it's also a lovely advanced OW dive, with the engine room being a simply swim through the skylights at 27m, straight ahead (there's a line) to the port cylinder heads, then up the stairs to the bunker room door on the port side, which has no door, it's the 2nd easiest engine room I've ever dived. Parts of the ship are best suited to rebreathers (I blow bubbles and make silt!), and others you should never enter - it literally offers perfect diving for every conceivable level of diver, nobody will leave disappointed. My fears of her deteriorating are proving less of a concern than they were, the upper aluminium decks dropping down in the Kaikoura quake spoiled her beauty, but it also opened the Cargo hold and other new ways in so I think over the years we'll be able to reach more and more of her safely.

    This was extremely interesting, and yet another reason why I think James Cameron is another one of Hollywood's bad apples. Aside from likely hastening the decomposition of the Titanic he also never issued a public statement just a breif "I didn't know there was a J.Dawson" nor did he apologize to the family for attracting fangirls/boys of the film to poor Joe Dawson's grave, likely causing wear and tear. also the film is garbage, so many inaccuracies including an impossible 3'rd-1'st class love story (which was cheesy and not in a so bad it's good way) as mentioned in this documentary.

    OMFG There were like two (three?) documentaries I watched endlessly in my youth about cruise ships, and I only remembered the title of one of them - ‘Cities on the Sea’. I found that one on your channel, so I thought I’d check out your other vids. And … holy carp, here’s the other docu. Well that’s my evening’s schedule all filled up now. EDIT: I have to ask - how did you get these? Did you just record all these on VHS back in the day? That’s what I (well, my mother) did, but I tossed out those cassettes eons ago.

    After Wahine they ordered a new bigger ferry called Rangatira for the Wellington Lyttelton run, but in the years after 1968 the market for inter island travel changed dramatically. Jet service out of Christchurch quickened travel to Wellington cut heavily into ferry traffic. At the same time the National Rail service has established a shorter ferry route between Wellington and Picton, which was abt 150 miles closer than Lyttelton. Rangatira saw a few short seasons until the service was suspended in 1976
