Humanity has long adored that absolute spectacle and grandeur that many of our oceangoing vessels have to offer; but some of the most fundamental parts of what makes these ships work are often underappreciated. We have spent many years streamlining the parts that ensure boats can safely get to their destination, and making sure that they can float, stop, and pass obstacles safely.
Let's take some time to appreciate the hard work and scientific effort that is such a vital part of the development of ships throughout history, and how both our strengths and our weaknesses have allowed us to ensure that the grand vessels of the sea perform at the absolute best of their ability.
Oceanliner Designs explores the design, construction, engineering and operation of history’s greatest vessels– from Titanic to Queen Mary and from the Empress of Ireland to the Lusitania. Join maritime researcher and illustrator Michael Brady as he tells the stories behind some of history's most famous ocean liners and machines!
