The titanic was an ocean liner, not a cruise ship. It's job was to take people across the ocean, from beginning to destination, at speeds a cruise ship could only dream of.

Whoosh...

The bottom image is of the Titanic, showing only open ocean because the Titanic is not floating on the surface.

Oh, I'm aware. I'm just annoyed they called it a cruise ship.
