A magnificent ship that bankrupted its creators. A man who smoked 40 cigars a day invented her. Almost fully made out of iron and the largest of her time, people thpught she would bend and nreak at the first sighn of waves. She sailed for 30 years, when they wrecked her, they found two riveters trapped in the double hull. On her maiden voyage an explosion from the water tanks killed several crewman. One night she hit a rock and it gouged her hull, with a rip in her hull bigger than titanics she stayed afloat, the passengers said they felt nothing. Truly a marvel

    I’d love to hear why people like the ships I make, that way I can see what I’ve done and maybe add it for future builds.
    So please, tell me why you lie this vessel?
