The Titanic cost $7.5 million to build but was insured for only $5 million, meaning a deliberate sinking for insurance fraud would have resulted in a $2.5 million net loss for White Star.

Carter Roy dismantles the ship-swap theory piece by piece. The porthole discrepancy? Designers added two extra portholes above the crew galley during construction because the space got unbearably hot — nothing sinister. The broader design differences between Olympic and Titanic (a closed A-Deck promenade, a redesigned B-Deck, extra first-class cabins) were deliberate improvements made as the Titanic was still being built, not evidence of a swap. The clincher is the yard numbers: every artefact recovered from the wreck — dishware, ship parts — is stamped 401, the Titanic's unique build identifier [1] — Carter Roy "Insurance gap: $2.5M loss: The Titanic cost $7.5 million to build but was insured for only $5 million, meaning a deliberate sinking for ins…" 57:40 . Not a single item bearing the Olympic's number, 400, has ever surfaced. Naval designer Stephen Payne calls the theory 'complete nonsense and an absolute fallacy.' And the financial math is damning: the Titanic was insured for $5 million against a $7.5 million construction cost, leaving White Star $2.5 million in the hole even if the fraud had worked perfectly.
Items recovered from the Titanic wreck are stamped with yard number 401 — the Titanic's unique identifier — while the Olympic's number was 400, directly disproving the ship-swap conspiracy theory.
Cold air near the water's surface bent light in a phenomenon called super-refraction, creating a thermal inversion mirage. It made the horizon appear higher than it was, obscured the iceberg until it was too late, and may have made the Titanic itself invisible to a nearby ship that could have saved hundreds.
