SS Titan
You have all heard of the new RMS Titanic II coming out soon, but have you heard of the SS Titan? The SS Titan will honor the legacy of Titanic, travel the world and provide an educational platform to Titanic and the age of Trans-Atlantic ship travel, while benefiting the health and well being of sick and needy children worldwide. She is also planned to be the world's largest and fastest ocean liner once constructed. It is hoped that Titan will be designed by Harland & Wolff, ltd., Titanic's Original Builder, in Belfast, Northern Ireland. SS Titan's interiors will boast all of the famous areas known to Titanic; the Grand Staircase, Palm Court, Cafe Parisian, Turkish Bath, and much more. She will also incorporate subtle modernized attributes of other great ships of the golden age of trans-Atlantic steamship travel, including the French Liner Normandie, among others. It is estimated that construction of Titan will cost approximately $1.6 billion (US), and take up to three years to complete, making her the most expensive ship ever built as well, far surpassing the $800 million price tag for the Queen Mary 2. She will look and feel like Titanic, but behind her bulkheads it would be ultramodern, safe, efficient, and cost effective to run.
