I miss ocean liners. Today, cruise ships look like floating hotels and while they seem to be really fun, I think they're aesthetically undesirable. A ship to take passengers on should look like a ship. Not a box that is being floated on top of a foundation. Ocean liners are absolutely gorgeous and i wish they'd go back to this design. This ocean liner is absolutely beautiful.

So sad about Albert Ballin's death. He took an overdose of sleeping pills, leaving behind a note that read, "Better an end with dread, than dread without end." He was fearing that revolutionaries would torture and imprison him. He was also heartbroken to see his dream, his fleet of beautiful liners, being damaged and destroyed (just like Brad said).

The Ballin trio ships are some of my favorite liners of all time. Their size and spacious interiors made them noteworthy and allowed them to have great careers. While researching them for my MC builds I truly understood how magnificent these ships once were and soon became one of my favorite trio of liners.

@michaelimbesi2314

The tendency to heel over and stay there that Imperator showed on her sea trials is probably actually a loll. This is a result of her being very slightly unstable in the upright condition, but becoming stable as she heels over a little and immerses more of her hull. It’s a very bad sign, because ships like that will require much less energy to capsize than a ship that is properly stable. If they hadn’t modified her after her first season, the severe storm in her second season probably would have capsized and sunk her.

Thank you for putting the spotlight on the SS Imperator, whose story remains largely relegated to the backwater of ocean liner lore. She never had much time in the sun, being close on the heels of Titanic, overshadowed quickly by Vaterland, and then again by the First World War. Her stability issues have often been highlighted in the few vignettes that feature her and the footage you kindly shared illustrating this are fascinating. That, and those responsible for her rather unfortunate nom de guerre, "Limperator." Her marvellous interiors and comparison with the Olympic and Lusitania Classes of ships are so informative, as was the wiring issue shared by Bismarck/Majestic and not the SS Leviathan - William Francis Gibbs would never let a vessel go to sea without safety features so extreme that they are rarely even seen on vessel today. Having a First Class dressing stand from one of the Ballin Trio, I can attest to the gorgeous craftsmanship that went into these vessels. For those visiting Hamburg, Germany, the home port of these three stunning vessel, a visit to the Ballin Museum would be a must and is very much on my list. Many thank for yet another brilliantly crafted featurette on a great liner.

From John Maxtone-Graham's essential The Only Way to Cross:
"Peacetime service resumed in the twenties was essentially unchanged, apart from a welcome absence of coaldust. British transformation of their ex-Germans was largely cosmetic: a new flag at the masthead, a new name across the stern, new funnel colors and a new berth on the Hudson's eastern shore. In the Berengaria's working spaces, her German origins had disappeared; plates identifying switches and valves had been reversed and inscribed in English. But in the cabins, the bathtub drains were still marked AUF and ZU and ashtrays bore the legend ZIGARREN.. The playroom's little rocking boat was still there but with a new name painted on the side."

Yes! Another winner from Big Old Boats! Thank you for all the time and effort you put into these excellent documentaries. I've loved ocean liners for decades but a lot of the footage here was new to me. --- Something that viewers may find of interest is that the Berengaria was to have remained in service until 1940 then be replaced by the Queen Elizabeth. In 1938 a fire broke out aboard the Berengaria while she was docked in New York. Her certification to carry passengers was revoked and the Berengaria returned to England without passengers, never to serve again as a passenger liner but was scrapped. --- Someone else may know more about this and can add a comment, but I believe Winston Churchill tried to prevent the scrapping of the Berengaria and maybe the Olympic also, knowing that the two liners would be of great value in the event of a war that appeared to be and actually was not far off.

@Kaidhicksii

Ballin sure was ballin' at the height of his career, that's for sure. Disregarding whoever was on the right side of history for a minute, this is why we can't have nice things, because dumb, stupid people provoke and then cause an outbreak of war between basically every major superpower in the world. Imagine if there was no WW1, or WW2, and what it would've been like if this trio of trios, the Three Kings as I like to call them, got to sail as intended under their native flags? Rather than having stunted potential from being sold off to foreign lines who had no clue how to operate them as prizes of war, it is clear to me that they probably would've been the champions of the Atlantic. What a shame, but an epic job well done once again. This is the best retelling of Imperator's story that I have ever seen.

@ScarletTermite

22w↑4

But..but I liked the name Imperator!

Excellent video as usual. It’s so sad that Herr Ballin took his own life but maybe, considering what was to come for Germany, it was a blessing in disguise. The eagle on the bow was, imo, gauche but I’ve always thought of the Kaiser as a bit gauche, anyway. I loved that you included a clip from “The Navigator.” Keaton is my all time favorite.
I will be looking forward to the next once we’re through Thanksgiving. I hope you have a nice holiday. 😊

Cunard Commodore Harry Grattidge wrote in his memoirs that the Berengaria was one of those ships he found difficult to love, describing her as "clumsy and difficult to handle, and it was not uncommon to have up to three fires break out daily."

Watching these videos and seeing how quickly the ships became "outdated" shocks me. It's no wonder that airplanes so quickly took over.

As a matter of facts, its wrong to talk about the Imperator with female pronouns.

french liners were referred to as He rather than She, mainly because they were not built as sisters in the strict sense of the word.

@Tindometari

20w

English customarily treats ships as female, even if the ship is named for a man or its name is an explicitly masculine noun like 'Imperator'. (For some reason Great Lakes freighters are sometimes an exception.) For example, Royal Navy ships have always been referred to as 'she' even if the ship is named for a King of England.

But German and Russian customarily treat ships as male. Whether to carry the original language's gendering of ships across in translation or to use the custom of the target language is one of those very fine points of translation that translators get very exercised over precisely because the issue is so small and there are valid reasons to take either course.

But generally, that's only an issue when actually translating. When simply speaking in a given language, one generally follows the custom of the language one is speaking in.

Good lesson in shipbuilding. The three HAPAG sisters met each other at least one time in one harbour, but already under their new names, i/e 'Berengaria', 'Leviathan' and 'Majestic'. The meeting can be seen on a picture by F. O. Braynard. The 'Leviathan' ex 'Vaterland' was great love of the artist; he wrote her whole story in six volumes. ♍

I love the idea of ocean liners but I'm afraid of cruise ships. They just look like floating hotels waiting to be hit by a rogue wave. Even though the Poseidon adventure was technically an ocean liner and not a cruise ship, I'd feel much safer on an actual ocean liner. I think the idea of luxurious cruises is really attractive but I feel like you're taking a huge risk. I visit them after they're retired like the qm2 and ss united states 😂

@scentlessapprentice88

Much safer to visit then when they're already docked. I think they're trying to make the qm2 into a floating hotel that will stay docked.
