wow.. so they actually made a scale model.... that is.. just.. wow. 
Now I am a believer. 
Seriously though, who didn't believe they could make a model and throw it around in a swimming pool? hehe.. 
At the very least, this signifies that money
has changed hands between companies over this project, physical resources have been put into its design, and that the hydrodynamic model of the ship is sound; I know some people who thought that even the model was a bluff, and used the lack of photographs of it to support the idea
The question does arise, though: did the pieces naturally fall into place that Titanic II was HSVA's 5,000th test, or did they need to shuffle some other tests around to get the two big PR events to coincide?
