    Question Conditions of the buried part of the Titanic's bow

    Could the conditions of the buried portion beneath the marine sediment of the Titanic's bow be potentially better compared to the rest of the ship? In such case, to what extent could it be in better preservation?

    Why did they not attempt to lighten the bow?

    There would have been plenty of ways to do that: - Cut the first funnel and throw it overboard; - Throw all the boilers from boiler rooms 6 and 5 overboard alongside all the coal from the bunkers in that section; - Move all the mail and furniture to the stern; - Evacuate every single person...

    How badly damaged is Titanics lower forward bow beneath the mud?

    Hi, I was having a discussion in regard to how badly damaged is the Titanics lower bow, specifically the area that's obscured by the surrounding piled up mud? I was always under the assumption that the lower bow is heavily crushed back due to the forces exterted on it when it ploughed through...

    Was there a flagpole on the bow of the Titanic?

    There are some illustrations and replicas where the Olympic and the Titanic are represented with a flagpole on the bow, did they ever have one?

    Could the stern have pulled the bow up?

    now this completely depends on how low in the water titanic was. but assuming she had a 15 degree trim by the time the grand staircase dome was halfway submerged. could the stern pull the bow out of the water by a few feet?

    Shape of waterlines towards bow, below tank top

    I'm making decent progress on the shape of the hull in my 3D model, and if the reference drawings that I'm using to form the shape are correct, then I'm happy. BUT I'm concerned that the shape of my waterlines may have an erroneous dip towards the bow that may be caused by incorrect buttocks...

    Joining of keel with bow stem

    Hey all, as some of you know, I’m drawing a 3D model of RMS Titanic. The area of the ship that I’m working on now is the bow section’s hull frames. The part underneath that transitions the bow stem to the keel is not well represented in any drawings that I’ve purchased, and so I’m wondering if...

    White things at bow

    Always wondered what are the two white objects at the very front of the bow basically in the movie what jack uses to stand on during his whole king of the world. Do they serve a purpose or just design

    The forecastle breakwater sign on the bow

    Hi! I found another thing! the breakwater sign on the forecastle! I bet the Breakwater shielded it from the flow of water during descent!

    Bow Head Lights

    I've wondered this question for years. Why was a strong headlight not used on ships at the time or ever since.

    Bow images

    Hi, this'll be sort of the "sequel" to my Stern Wreck photos from the 2003 NOAA dive and other expeditions. This'll be all over the ship, not just the Exterior of Bow section (as we all know why with the Stern) So expect some "rare" (or just Hard to Find) Bow interior photos as well. First Up...

    Did Titanic's Bow section Skid or land on to the bottom? Fast or Slow?

    Some people say that the Bow landed 45 miles an hour. Some say without a bump. Some say the Bow skidded into the sediment, digging the Forward hull into the ocean floor. But, if so, how did objects remain where their passengers left them? Wouldn't have all the debris been thrown forward? If the...

    Bow Wreck Model

    Hi All, having largely completed modelling the stern section of the wreck, I've started work on the bow section. These images show progress to date.

    When the ship broke in two, did the Bow have any unflooded rooms?

    In most Simulations, it shows her breaking in two before the Lounge is flooded. Were that hadn't flooded before the break up happened? Are the simulations correct?

    ...where do I even begin for a Bow and Stern sections?

    what are the specific step-by-step instructions? Best model to use? what tools do I need? Rust/rusticles?

    Stern and Bow images

    Hi y'all. I think we should make a collection of the Bow and Stern sections. Why? because we'll see the ship inside and out. The whole picture. So, we can find photos of the wreck, post them here, and label them as "Bow" or "Stern". maybe even the debris field. If anyone does post, please make...

    What if the bow evened her keel after the breakup?

    Here's my theory. I call it the Even Keel Theory: The Titanic is heavily listing to port and the bridge is just beginning to go under. The forces acting upon the hull cause it to twist. The Titanic starts to buckle. The boilers in boiler room #2 implode. This creates a shockwave that fractures...

    Answered Structure on starboard bow in Belfast footage

    Hello, I was wondering if anyone can provide information as to what the large hanging structure attached to Titanic's starboard bow is, in the footage of her entering the graving dock in Belfast (the only known moving pictures of the ship on the surface)? Seems to be a large block attached to...
