On this channel we often look at maritime disasters like Titanic, Lusitania or the Empress of Ireland. It can get a bit taxing on the soul so today I thought you'd lighten the mood with some funny stories from the great days of the ocean liners. From the SS Great Eastern's unintended design faults to epic beerrescuing missions, pranks, frauds and a famous ship with a mind of its own! Here are a few of my favourite funny maritime stories.

Oceanliner Designs explores the design, construction, engineering and operation of history’s greatest vessels– from Titanic to Queen Mary and from the Empress of Ireland to the Lusitania. Join maritime researcher and illustrator Michael Brady as he tells the stories behind some of history's most famous ocean liners and machines!
