You keep harping on about the damage the Hawke did to the Olympic Can i suggest you vvisit http://freewebs.com/whitestar-titanic, and on the task bar click on white star liners there you will find documented evidence of what happened.Like you i spent nine years in the navy and have spent over 28 years reserching the Titanic and white star how long have you been doing it ??

I've heard this theory on and off for years. Wasn't it started by the fact that one of the ships had the wrong name painted on, and it had to be overpainted?

Sorry, once upon a time I'd have remembered more than that, but this really is a bit old....

Regarding your suggestion was the Titanic & Olympic switched.I think were this rumour started was in the press in 1912 when every paper was gagging to be first with the story and pictures of
Titanic leaving on her maiden voyage, Many of the press submitted photo's of the Olympic and claimed that they were the Titanic.I have 6 copies of papers from this erra which all back up this theory so please before you post comments do your homework and check thoroughly.

Hello Booty,
Just read your post on the Hawke Striking Olympic,Very good i have read much the same report in a factual book i have well done on you descriptive piece.Incidently the hull numbers of Olympic and Titanic were as follows Olympic was 400 & Titanic 401.I always remember my Grandfather telling me years ago that it was hard to tell the two ships apart.And i think he new what he was talking about he worked in Southampton docks all his working life,and over the years has fascinated me with his stories.But to suggest they were swapped is rediculous.Think of the amount of people that would have had to have been in on the conspiracy to many i fear.But this Suggestion will be played with for many years to come.the only way to find out would be to go back in time,and like proving they were swapped is impossible.
Keep posting your in depth reports Neptune from davy jones locker.
