At 63 years of age, I have just recently learned that ; in spite of couple of iceberg warnings in that area, Captain of Titanic ordered fullspeed in pitch dark night !!!!!
The speed of the ship was over 20 knots !!!! I remember those white splashes in the bow of my little sailboat when she was doing 4-5 knots ... Thourough darkness in the foggy night making
over 20 knots speed with thousands of tons of weight by carrying thousands of people on board is insane... Here in this very sad photo we see port side anchor of Titanic which was 15 tons of weight and never used ...
Being captain of any vessel which is able to float is an amazing thing to do. I would like to share the beginning of the " Small Boat Sailing " book from my favorite writer Jack London who was a sailer as well.

" A sailor is born, not made. And by "sailor" is meant , not the average efficient and hopeless creature who is found today in the forecastle of deepwater ships, but the man who will take a fabric compounded of wood and iron and rope and canvas and compel it to obey his will on the surface of the sea. Barring captains and mates of big ships, the small - boat sailor is the real sailor.
He knows -he must know- how to make the wind carry his craft from one given point to another given point. He must know about tides and rips and eddies, bar and channel markings, and day and night signals; he must be wise in weather-lore; and he must be sympathetically familiar with the peculiar qualities of his boat which differentiate it from every other boat that was ever built and rigged. He must know how to gentle her about, as one instance of a myriad, and to fill her on the other tack without deadening her way or allowing her to fall off too far.
The deepwater sailor of today needs non of these things. And he doesn't. Put him in a small boat and he is helpless." ...

A new issue on some parts of the Atlantic Ocean...

On May 4, three orcas sank a Swiss yacht in the Iberian Peninsula. They might have learned the behavior as part of a new fad.
