During an underwater tour of Catalina Island, passengers aboard the SS Nautilus couldn't avoid thinking about the loss of the Titan submersible -- but that didn't stop them from boarding.
Long before a submersible vanished on an expedition to explore the wreck of the Titanic, concerns were raised about the safety of the vessel.“I read everything. Pretty sad, super sad,” said Segovia before boarding. “But, no hesitations about this because this is not going so deep.”“I would not get on,” said Segovia. “You couldn’t pay me the $25,000, $50,000, whatever.”
Additionally, submersibles must meet certain requirements for design, engineering and testing laid out by DNV, a Norway-based organization that oversees maritime safety standards. The lost Titan submersible lacked those certifications. Industry safety officials and OceanGate employees had, saying it “could result in negative outcomes [from minor to catastrophic].”
Dramatic music swelled in the background to give passengers the feel of an epic sea excursion while the crew member urged passengers to buy more fish torpedoes and cracked jokes.Passengers disembark from the SS Nautilus semi-submersible in Catalina Island’s Avalon Bay on Friday.
