Hey guys,
Here is my rough design outline for the RMS Regalic, basically an enlarged Olympic-class liner.
She will combine the best facilities from Aquitania and Britannic into a world-class liner.
She will also be four-funneled steamer, but be powered exclusively by turbines, driving four propellers.
Tell me what you guys think...I think she would be a very beautiful ship to see out on the ocean...
