Thanks TJK

Great info there too, I didn't know that

Ok, this one is relating to my favourite ship......Titanic

The Port and Starboard propellor setups had a specific name, what was this name?

It's actually easier than you may think, try not to look too deep into the question

dharl · « **Reply #403 on:** February 07, 2008, 10:39:00 »

Are you refering to the Propeller set ups or the whole engine line?

If set ups then The Port Propeller would be Right Handed Fixed pitch propeller, inward turning. while the Starboard propeller would have been a Left handed Fixed pitch propeller, inward turning. Not sure on the set up of the centre (turbine) propeller. Prob a right handed fixed pitch again though....

Close?

[RWP]DJM · « **Reply #404 on:** February 07, 2008, 10:41:18 »

A little too deep there

All I'm actually referring to is, the name of the housing for each of the propellors (Port and Starboard)

Think of a two-word name, and you have it

Propeller shafts??

Carl, Iâ€™m going to wing it here and ask: Did Titanic have Kort Nozzles?

Not quite there yet guys, keep trying though

mvsmith · « **Reply #408 on:** February 07, 2008, 17:14:51 »

Carl. If you mean the housing for the propeller shafts outside the hull, they were usually referred to as â€œshaft wingsâ€ because they extended horizontally from the hull.

They were able to walk inside those, weren't they..?

[RWP]DJM · « **Reply #410 on:** February 07, 2008, 19:47:43 »

Ok, time for me to spill the beans

They were called Boss-Arms

They looked big enough to walk inside them, not sure if it was possible though $:-\$

mvsmith · « **Reply #418 on:** February 08, 2008, 20:17:23 »

Give the name, type, and owner of the ship chartered to recover the bodies of the Titanic victims.
Extra points for how many morticians were aboard, and their affiliation.

I'll sit this one out for now, thanks

saltydog · « **Reply #420 on:** February 08, 2008, 20:35:03 »

That is a bum question Marty, it won't do..
So, anyone with a real question..?

beechjetkid17 · « **Reply #421 on:** February 08, 2008, 20:44:18 »

was the ship named the Mackay-Bennet? Captained by Frederick Harold Larnder. The Mackay Bennett was a cable ship...

Thatâ€™s OK, Dawg. It is fairly far afield, and Iâ€™ll pass up my turn.
Given the space devoted to the Titanic, and the enthusiasm shown by some for the sinking of ships, I wondered whether anyone was interested in the ultimate consequences.
It is, after all, a part of Titanicâ€™s history, and should be known to all who claim to be expert in that.
Regards,
Marty

saltydog · « **Reply #423 on:** February 08, 2008, 20:47:14 »

no worries Marty, it just seemed a bit macabre..

mvsmith · « **Reply #424 on:** February 08, 2008, 20:48:05 »

Dan,
You got most of it. Good going.
Iâ€™m glad someone cared that much.
Regards
Marty
