Oh really? Perhaps you can produce a reference to that?


Yes. http://www.dellamente.com Here you a

"Harland & Wolff were quite limited technically, with only their own
experience to draw on. They were aware of the power and economy the
turbine offered, although still unsure of its reliability, and chose to
play it safe ..."

Or is this another site that knows less than you about the Titanic?


... If I recall, the bearings proved to be a problem on a sister ship.



Care to produce a cite on that? Or did you just pull that out of thin
air, like almost everything else you've said so far in this thread and
many others?


Good lord. Are you seriously suggesting that turbine bearing failure did
not occur in that era? I'd say that your behaviour is exposing your true
nature quite nicely -just for the record.
