Video idea: A video about the never finished White Star Liner RMMV Oceanic and the two little versions of her that came along, the MV Britannic and the MV Georgic...
In my library is "Great Passenger Ships That Never Were: Damned By Destiny" by Williams & Kerbrech. It is an excellently researched book that gives accounts of many liners proposed but never built. With highly informative text and lavishly illustrated, the book is extremely interesting to learn about the topic. And yes, there is a nice section on the 60,000 ton White Star liner Oceanic, which never got past the laying of the keel. It's pricey, but well worth it imo. Cheers.
The pre-Big Four White Star Line fleet is probably now my favourite era with there twin funnel liners from the original Oceanic-class to the RMS Oceanic (1899) prior to the introduction of the Big Four and Olympic-class!
1st generation: Oceanic Class 2nd generation: Britannic Class 3rd generation: Teutonic Class 4th generation: Oceanic II 5th generation: The Big Four 6th generation: Olympic Class 7th generation: 1/3 of the Imperator Class and the Homeric 8th generation: Britannic III Class
A rather interesting event occurred late in _Majestic’s_ career: On May 6, 1913, 27 year old trimmer William Keon attempted suicide by jumping overboard, but was saved by First Officer David Blair, who was awarded a King’s Medal…and a pair of binoculars. The ironic part is that this is the same David Blair who was meant to be _Titanic’s_ second officer only to be removed from the crew, accidentally taking the key to a locker that held binoculars for the lookouts, though given the dark conditions, binoculars wouldn’t have made a difference.
The whole "Blair had the key" bit is a myth. To believe this one has to think that the officers of the Titanic were incapable of breaking into a storage locker. Think about it... Do you really think old EJ Smith was like "That bloody Blair! He has absconded with the key to the storage locker that has life saving equipment! My God Murdoch! If only there was some way we could get into this storage locker! Alas, it is locked with the most secure mechanism in history...a skeleton key lock! We have no other option than to wait TWO WEEKS until we can track down that Blair!"? Of course during the sinking he shouted "DAMN YOU BLAIR!!!". Why this myth is believed so easily is just moronic...see what I did there? Anyone? The reference to the video? No one? Shit
@@CJODell12 Literally the video you apparently just watched. He added "Moronic" to the ship names in his intro. Retention can be difficult my friend perhaps you should watch the video again.
Not possible really. Considering no ocean liners have been built since the Queen Mary 2 in 2004, it's very unlikely to happen. Besides, I'm sure if anyone wanted a new ocean liner to look like a classic ocean liner, most would look to the superliners of the 1930s and 1940s.
Indian and Russian trains run first class, second class and third class. You can search for them here on the Tube from different travellers about their experiences in first, second or third class, it really is interesting!
Fact Check: As was the rule with all White Star liners, in Third Class, single men were berthed forward and single women, married couples and families were berthed aft. One big change with Teutonic and Majestic was they were the first to provide two and four berth cabins for Third Class passengers, albeit in a limited capacity. Third Class accommodations were on the two lowest passenger decks titled the Main and Lower decks. In the stern there were four compartment sections, two on each deck. The forward of the two sections on the Lower Deck contained an array of two and four berth cabins with about 150 berths which were strictly reserved for married couples and families with children. The remainder of the Third Class passengers were berthed in 20-berth dormitory style cabins similar to what had been used on the Oceanic class ships, Britannic and Germanic. One interesting note was these dormitories were built with shutters in the walls to provide added ventilation. Passengers were provided with access to pantries and wooden tables and benches in each compartment for their meals. The large dining rooms which would be the standard on later ships were added when the twins underwent extensive refits in 1901 and 1904 respectively, and the dormitory cabins in the stern were replaced with the more standard four berth cabins in order to match the layouts of newer ships
You can't beat Sam o'nella. That's why I refuse to make a video on the USS William D. Porter. I also really like BlueJay's content, it's a little more advanced than mine
I actually really like the oceanic class, it took me awhile to come around but there's something about the sails in conjunction with the birth of modern ocean liners.
Would it be possible if you can make a video about the RMS Campania & RMS Lucania. They are my favourite liners and I am pretty sure you will like them as well:D Or at least I hope so lol.
Amongst my ocean liner ephemera is an unused postcard of the RMS Majestic. This is a PMC (Private Mailing Card) published 1898/1901, and shows a beautiful lithograph of the ship on front. Per US Congressional law at the time, no messages were allowed on the back--only the address. Front text below the picture states the ship's tonnage, length and Ismay, Imrie & Company. Cheers to my fellow enthusiasts of the Golden Age Of Transatlantic Liners.
For future reference, Boer is pronounced just that same as bore or boar. The Boer Wars aren't really talked about much these days, probably due to being over shadowed by The Great War and its highly anticipated sequel. Thanks for another brilliant video. Take care and stay safe.
I didn't realise that the "Teutonic twins" as you call them were the only White Star liners in an era that Cunard produced Campania/Lucania; Caronia/Carmania; Lusitania/Mauretania even perhaps Umbria and Etruria (although they had sails...). So White Star may have produced "interesting" but I'd suggest Cunard did more with more...
Teutonic's move to Southampton in 1907 was not along with the rest of the WSL fleet. Only the Majestic, Oceanic and Adriatic were moved there. The rest still operated from Liverpool or London.
Your videos remind me of the tongue and cheek style of early "Regular Car Reviews" Granted your subject matter appeals to a smaller subsection of the TH-cam world, but we are a faithful bunch of weirdos. But man, keep up the good work. Might I suggest one of the last Edwardian era ships still in decent condition, the SS Keewatin, still afloat up in Canada.
Just wondering if you’re Canadian cause you’re showing the correct flag of Canada ( the red ensign) for the years in question. Great job on these historic ship stories. I have to watch very closely because I may miss some of your funny quips. Cheers!
"So what did we learn?" I was going to say that "valience" is not a word and that you meant "valor," but a quick check of Webster shows I'm mistaken. So there's that.
The beginning of the Industrial Revolution of the ship community. Also the moronic is not a real White Star Line Vessel and it's just the most modern crigy app of all time so far

My favourite White Star Liner is the RMS Moronic.
We need Atlanticliners again. But they have to look like the old ones. Style and Class. Just beautiful those liners from the 1890s and 1900s.
We don't need them, commercial flight doomed that. Wish they would come back but their not needed. Thats why well never got one again.

no its prounced differently, as in /bʊərz/ BOORZ
A video on the riverboat Virginia would be something neat. It's claim to fame was running aground in a flooded corn field along the Ohio River.
A video about the SS Waratah would be good. It's a fascinating mystery which doesn't get nearly enough attention.
Excellent video! Can’t wait to see what you have in store next!
I am proud to be part of the boat people nation I offer you the song of our people.

The sails were there just for sales. Customers needed 20 more years to accept only steam. Sails were hardly used after 1870's
0:23 Made me laugh!!!!

So, John Burns is both a name and a complete sentence in English, subject and verb. How funny!
Interesting that they flipped the arrangement of Single Men and Single Women in regards to other liners such as the first Oceanic-Class
Awesome! I love these ships!
Perfect timing.
Maybe you could make a Video about the Imperator class ships (Imperator, Vaterland and Bismarck)?
Great Video, keep it going.
Could you make a video about MS Pilsudski and MS Batory? No one really talks about them, yet their histories are very interesting
Ye, well...mostly Batory, Pilsudski just, went out like a wimp-
when you insulted tik tok i was so proud because living in hong kong, i know tik tok is spyware.

Build it with the possibility of being converted to an armed merchant cruiser: For that just in case moment.
Can you do a video about sultana its a paddle steamer that sank on Mississippi river. Its one of my favorite ships
