my ship is not answered

Michael, your question wasn't answered in over 2 hours, and when a question isn't answered in 2 hours, a new question is posted.

And the answer to my question:
From the show "Titanic: How it Really Sank," in Ismay's Trial, he said the Titanic was to have 48 Lifeboats, but it would make her deck look cluttered. You see he said 48 or 65 lifeboats, but in the show, the planned amount of lifeboats was 48.
Here is the YouTube video:

But I would accept either 48 or 64

Ok, what was the name of the former Cunard vessel dubbed the "Green Goddess", and in what way was she a first for Cunard?

RYAN123 · « **Reply #7466 on:** August 20, 2010, 20:01:24 »

RMS Coronia she was the first cunard with a green hull?

saltydog · « **Reply #7467 on:** August 20, 2010, 20:01:51 »

The RMS Caronia, the first and largest ship built in the post-war period with the exclusive purpose of "cruising"..

Shipaddict · « **Reply #7468 on:** August 20, 2010, 20:04:15 »

First part was correct Ryan, but the second was not what I was looking for.

Well done Salty! She was Cunard's first purpose built cruise ship.

Your go

saltydog · « **Reply #7469 on:** August 20, 2010, 20:06:33 »

Thanks, I don't have one ready right now, Ryan can go..
