Love your enthusiasm !!
Too bad!! Nice looking vessel! Good Vid.
thank you so much for waching and yes indeed she could have been an amazing italian linner.
Heartbreaking when a launching accident occurs. I hadn’t heard of many ships launched after being fitted out and furnished.
Its A sad tragedy indeed thank you so much for watching
It must have been utterly incomprehensible to those watching, a beautiful new liner turning turtle upon launch.
The _Vasa_ is the only other loss upon launching that springs to mind.
Well that's what happened to my son's Lego boat so now he just first builds the empty Hull then he starts adding a little bit of detail and then he puts it in the water and then finishes it
It wasn't entirely unusual for Italian ships to be launched nearly complete (I.E. with superstructure, funnels etc.) already fitted.
It was probably the LAST, though.
Wow. That's amazing.
Sadly indeed
Such a pity, but it is from accidents that valuable lessons are learned. Happy to hear no mention of casualties.
I am a new subscriber. I have long been interested in the sea, like any proper landlubber, and find the older steamships, be they luxurious liners or tramp steamers, to have personality.
I agree completey and thank you for watching and of course welcome to the channel 👍🏽
Yes I've read about this tragedy, seemed almost unbelievable, nice ship but the funnels seemed out of proportion or maybe it was the unusual position of the vessel as she lay towards the port side, I think I also read that they thought she might be top heavy but when you mentioned that she was already furnished, that may have contributed to the top heaviness, the whole building support of the ship looked very flimsy to me ,
agreed i think this learns us with ship building dont rush
thank you again so much for watching
TITANIC: sinks on maiden voyage:
PRINCIPESSA JOLANDA: "I can beat THAT".
That's how you do it!
Looks like they launched the ship with empty fuel tanks (no ballast). Oops!
Great story! I didn't know about this.
Good job
Thank you so much im glad you liked it 👍🏽
Nice intro. Hope you get 1k subs :)
Thank you so much for watching
I enjoyed this and thank you .. what was the outcome of the sunken ship in the end .. was it left or salvaged or maybe refloated
It was salvaged and Scraped thank you so much for watching 😁 👍🏽
I do understand why Principessa Jolanda capsized During her launch but great video Btw
thank you do much for watching
No problem as always
They did a Wasa launch.
Probably in my opinion the ship was to slim and with the funnels being placed already on top of the ship and also to mention that it's superstructure was pretty tall
It was heavy indeed
To bad it could not be quickly back onto the slip way or towed to an open drydock
Indeed
"This ship had an extremely short life" lol
Why didn't they refloat and repair it?
It would have been to expensive
Bummer!
That is what I was missing in the video - what happened after the capsizing. Reading the comments I understand the ship was scrapped and some parts were re-used.l
@@george_364 in the sister ship Principessa Mafalda most probably, engines, propellers, and propellers shafts. Mafalda sank after a shaft broke near Abrolhos, Brazil, 300+ dead.
Hardly what could be called a tragedy. At sea and full of passengers when you find the problem; that can be a tragedy. In port with nobody on it except possibly a few dockyard workers that had an hour to get off and 100 meters at most to swim (if there weren't small boats nearby anyway); that is bad news for the insurance company and bad press for the shipping line, but still not a tragedy.
Its A tragedy because there was so many expextations around this ship and then to see it fail i hope you liked the video tho😁👍🏽
@@OldShippinglines
Well, we have different ideas about what constitutes a tragedy as opposed to a failure.
But, yes I liked the video. Very informative. I presupposed that the ship was top heavy by design failure; ships have capsized on launch before. However your explanation makes sense and if that's what the authorities determined then I'll run with it.
And your English is good; proper grammar makes you understandable despite the accent.
@@mikearmstrong8483 thank you so much 😁
Improper ballasting prior to launch?
Yes
Oops
