Title: Titanic test cruise
Post by: Fredriksen on August 04, 2007, 06:30:10

I have made a test cruise in Titanic, and here are the results:

Titanic in ss08:

Action: Full reverse at 20 knots
Time to reach full stop: 03:25 minutes
Length used until full stop: ??can somone calculate this?? (I want to compare to the real thing!)

Action: Stop Engines at 20 knots
Time to reach full stop: 04:30 minutes

Action: Full Ahead
Time to reach 20 knots: 09:30 minutes

The real Titanic:

Action: Full reverse at 20 knots
Time to reach full stop: ?
Length used until full stop: 850 yards/777 meters

And does someone know about a place on the web where I can find more results from Titanic's test cruise?

that video is a part of a dokumentation. Showed on a german TV station on April 2007 (I´ve seen it complete). But the duko was a english production I don´t know from GB or USA.
