    That was pretty well done. There's a bit more to the story, like the fact that the man who was president of Hamburg-America Line and commissioned these liners killed himself during WWI, or that the man who put together the plans to refurbish the Leviathan went on to design the fastest ocean liner to enter service.

      Fact: the man who played John Jacob Astor in James Cameron's "Clickbait" was a survivor of the Wilhelm Gustloff. He was only 4 at the time, and miraculously everyone of his family members made it off alive as well.
      In the scene of the movie when Astor dies in the Grand Staircase scene, it was real fear on his face, not acting fear. He said it was "the scariest moment of my acting career".

    Even though Leviathan ultimately proved to be a financial failure, she did still attract a loyal passenger following.
    1927 was her best year carrying a total of 40,537 passengers that year, and carrying a record 2,741 passengers on one eastbound crossing in September.

    The Vaterland was a beautiful vessel, what's most unfortunate is the fact she was completed in 1913 and only had like a year of service before basically being left to rot in New Jersey of all places, This liner has so much potential to be the Star of The German merchant fleet

    Albert Ballin has a sterling reputation as a naval architect. But a couple of things stand out that make me wonder where his common sense was in the simple matter of design. The Imperator was top heavy. I cannot understand how such a simple factor as how much the damn thing weights above the waterline wasn't address DURING planning and construction. The second is the split funnel design, wh. afford First Class passengers an unobstructed view aft of the social halls on 'A' Deck. That design wreaked havoc w/the Majestic, hoving (?) a vertical paper cut just forward of the superstructure during a bad storm. The one improvement Ballin provided for Third Class was single berth rooms.

    Leviathan's success with the United States Lines was hindered by Prohibition forcing her to run as a "dry ship". The Immigration Act of 1924 also did not help matters.
    Despite these adversities, Leviathan still managed to gain an impressive following. In 1926 for example, Leviathan had an average of 1,300 passengers per voyage, making her the second most popular liner on the transatlantic route that year.
    And in 1927, Leviathan was the most popular ship on the transatlantic route, carrying 40,537 passengers over 28 crossings, averaging 1,448 per crossing.
    The Great Depression became the final nail in the coffin. At one point, Leviathan was losing over $75,000 for every round trip.
    It's a damn shame too, because Leviathan was a really beautiful ship, and she had a loyal passenger following despite all the adversity.

    Also, the Imperator class ships were referred to in the masculine. Seriously: "Imperator" - German for "Emperor." A female would be referred to as "Empress." "Vaterland" - German for "Fatherland." Not "Motherland." And Bismarck.
    I think that just refers to Otto von Bismarck, which if I'm right, well, he was obviously a guy. This is just me crapping on certain maritime traditions that I find stupid: don't mind me.
    Ok, that little stuff out of the way, HELL YES: you did my favorite German ship! :D
    I absolutely love the Vaterland. The last project I did in high school before graduating was a slideshow documenting the life of good ol' Willy Francis Gibbs. One section of it was dedicated to Vaterland, and as I did my research, I learned a ton about this guy. Had a lot going for him, but as soon as England and Germany decided to start brawling, everything went down the gutter. Also, the Imperator class ships had some of the most gorgeous interiors ever built. Everybody talks about the Normandie, but it really feels like these guys get slept on sometimes. For instance, the only ship in history that had a pool anywhere near as good as theirs was the Queen Mary.
    I know Maritime Merchants on Reddit. Great guy, really smart, and he's got the same knack for accuracy as I do. Been following his model kit project since it was first announced, and I'll definitely be picking it up from Yestr Toys (whom I also know) as soon as possible. Great to have you back!!

    The Imperetor didn't just have a rolling problem; she was top heavy. Her designers and builders thought it a good idea to use lots and lots of heavy material - including MARBLE - in her superstructure. This resulting in her listing to one side or another depending on which direction her helm was turned. This resulted in the whole "Limperator" nickname that she was saddled with. When she was handed over to Cunard (to replace Lusitania) after the war, she was immediately packed off to the shipyard, and much of that heavy marble was ripped out and replaced with lighter materials. This permanently fixed her listing issues.
    Strangely enough, she was also a he during her time with her original owners. The Kaiser decreed that such a magnificent ship couldn't possibly be a female and ordered that male pronouns be used. When Cunard got a hold of her, that ceased. (The same call would be made about the warship Bismarck years later.)
    As for dear Vaterland, she was the only one out of her sisters to not suffer any fires. Imperator/Berengeria and Bismarck/Majestic were plagued by electrical fires throughout their lives. Majestic was finally destroyed by a fire in 1939, which resulted in her being sent to the scrapyard. Berengeria suffered from fires here and there, and after her sister was gutted, Cunard decided it wasn't worth the risk, but that replacing her wiring wasn't worth the expense, and they sold her to a scrapyard. When the Americans decided to keep Vaterland as a passenger ship, she was sent off to a shipyard, where her entire wiring system was ripped out and remade completely by American electricians. This saved her from sharing her sisters' fate.

    @Brock_Landers ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The first real Hapag ship that you showed was the Limperator...with it's well-known list due to her engineer's lack of knowledge of metacentric height. Hapag used the ship's eagle figurehead to claim that she was longer than the Aquitania, but the figurehead was disfigured in a crazy wave and it was eventually completely done away with, but the Germans never corrected her length, so she was always known as the World's Largest Ship. She was still beautifully designed, along with her sisters, but they were all awarded to other countries as war reparations. They proudly served until just before WWII for their respective countries. The Vaterland served for the United States Line as the SS Leviathan (which was claimed to be the World's Largest Ship).

    • @Mr_Oceangoer
      @Mr_Oceangoer ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Odd thing is, they didn't even need the eagle to still be longer. Aquitania was 901ft, and without the eagle, Imperator was still 909ft. Aquitania's length seemed to confuse them for a while because I believe it's also cited as why Majestic was 956ft as opposed to Vaterland's 950ft, and it was called by those working on it the most expensive 6ft they've had to do.

    • @jonny2954
      @jonny2954 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Mr_Oceangoer Yup. Imperator was longer than Aquitania even without the eagle. However Cunard announced the Aquitania will be 1 foot longer before her launch so the Germans got nervous and put that eagle up, even though it wasn't necessary in the end.
