Suggest some Record breaking ships for Ship Sim.

Like largest container or largest cruise liner.

10 minutes ago, oasis of the seas was the largest. But within an hour, who knows?

Oh, Just searched it in Google. Looks rediculous.

World's Largest Crude Carrier Jahre Viking. She is the record breaker of largest ship before Oasis of the Seas came. Jahre Viking was said to be scrapped by the shipbreakers sometime from now. Ship Sim would keep her memory alive if she is scrapped, like Ship Sim kept Titanic alive when she sank. So my suggestions for SS08:
VLCC Jahre Viking (Knock Nevis)
MV Oasis of the Seas
RMS Queen Mary 2
RMS Queen Elizabeth 2
MS Queen Elizabeth 3
and finally, Titanic's Hospitalic sister, HMHS Britannic.
Pictres in order:

QE3's twin Queen Victoria

Britannic is shrouded by Titanic's fame but is not forgotten.

My ship suggestions for future SS:

VLCC Jahre Viking / Knock Nevis

MV Oasis of the Seas

RMS Queen Mary 2 (Maybe, but that's a tiresome sad ship)

SS Leviathan

And of course, my favourite one!

Aquarama

Of course! I was very lazy to go search for what has been already posted, so I proudly corrected your post.
I didn't like that Oasis image, so I used my favourite one!

Besides, the copyright of images that you used in your post doesn't say that only you are allowed to use them!

On that 1st image after the Emma Maersk the 3rd ship should be the TI class tankers (LOA = 380 meters)

My favourite tanker, the French built Batillus and her 3 sisters

(http://img3.imageshack.us/i/batillus.jpg/)

(http://img37.imageshack.us/i/batillustankerinsaintna.jpg/)

414m long, and still today the biggest ships ever constructed by gross tonnage. The last one was scrapped in 2003

Wave Music · « **Reply #22 on:** November 29, 2009, 20:23:52 »

I wonder, why one of them was scrapped in 6 years after entering the service? 2 other - like in 10 years?

I dont think that chart is right because even the Titanic is bigger than the Empire state building and the chart says Knock nevis is just as tall as Empire state.
