00:00
The most recent cruise ship to sink was the Costa Concordia off the Italian coast, January 14, 2012.
Stay in the private dining room with a good looking blonde while the ship runs aground... (see Costa Concordia)
It sunk at night time when passengers were just finishing dinner on Jan. 13, 2012... (Friday the 13th)
Well it was 9:30 pm when a big rock scrapped a hole in the side of the hull and the whole ship shaked. Then, water started to fill in the hole where the diesel generators were, they soon gave out and the engines started to shut down.the Concordia was at the the mercy of the waves and wind. The Concordia started to shift a mile at sea. Luckily a gust of wind pushed them back to the shore of the island. On the boat people couldn't get off because the captain didn't give them orders to abandon ship. Later they were able to, but there still was a lot more people on board. Now the ship was sinking to the starburst side Alot of people jumped and swam, and 32 died, ship directors say if the wind didn't push them back close to shore hundreds or maybe thousands would have died that day.
Titanic did not sink on the 13th of April. She was sailing very well at sea and logged 546 miles from noon Saturday (4/13) to noon Sunday (4/14). This was also the day that the coal bunker fire was successfully quenched.
No. Hundreds of ships and boats sink every year, though most of these sinkings are not significant enough to make the news. Here are just a few major sinkings in between Titanic and Costa Concordia. 1912- Titanic 1914- Lusitania 1915- Empress of Ireland 1916- Britannic 1945- Wilhelm Gustoff 1956- Andrea Doria 1991- Oceanos 2012- Costa Concordia

Yes, all used lifeboats were used on Titanic. This made her unique because she is the only major vessel to sink after having discharged all of her lifeboats. That certainly did not happen for Lusitania, Britannic, the Costa Concordia or anything else.
An interesting fact of Titanic could be that she is the only major vessel to sink directly forward. Virtually every other sinking ship has listed to either port or starboard like the Andrea Doria, the Normandie, and in more recent memory, the Costa Concordia.
