Would you sail in the Titanic 2 ?

Some Australian Billionare has decided to get a replica of the Titanic built in China Shipyards, to be use for tourism, and wants to name it the Titanic 2.

Would you ever want to sail in a ship of that name, with such a history behind it ?

I could not, as I am to supersticious.

No problem.. This would be sailing around the south pacific, no not much chance of another iceberg incident..

The only doubt would be the Chinese build standard..

Apparently there were major problems with the design that made the boat much more likely to sink if holed (which obviously came to pass) so I hope that it would only be superficially like the original. And so, for that reason, I`m oooooot!

How about the `Perfect massive wave` to take it out side-on and turn turtle.... AKA: `Posidion adventure style`  

Just naming a boat `Titanic` is asking for it.

Has he not seen the film?  It sinks as well - well, I think it does but I didn`t watch it either...

I always remember the line in the monty python style movie `Time Bandits`, when they are on the Titanic......

"Waiter more ice"
