    I've seen some VERY small ship's wheels. On the ship I was stationed aboard, a guided missile frigate, the wheel was just a few inches across. About half the size of the Alucia's. Apparently the idea is that it's less prone to getting bumped accidentally.

    The video thumbnail is an elevation of the boat, but it says "Floor Plan." I watched the whole video to discover that there is not a single floor plan involved at all, just the same MS-Paint-quality elevation, on which you draw dotted lines to show where you visited like some sort of shitty treasure map. Very disappointing experience.

    Just the kind of ship you need to hunt for the remains of MH370

    • @Zanzubaa
      @Zanzubaa 6 років тому +1

      It can only search relatively small sections of the sea-bed though and only to a certain depth. At this point the chance of anyone coming across MH370 in the next 100 years is next to nil and to be fair, there really is no good reason too, at least nothing that would justify the resource expenditure.
      Edit: Literally the day after comment a private company announces it has struck a deal to search for MH370 on a no find no fee basis. They must be pretty confident, maybe they will find it after all.

    Annoying presenter and the far too expensive ship just shows that the series is only a marketing exercise making the BBC a lot of money on top of what the forced license holders have to cough up so those clowns can sleep in lavish luxury cabins.
