Now a question? What do you think happens to an all steel ship, with
frozen storage holds 6 decks deep, below the water level, with only the
outside of envelope of the holds insulated, not the steel plates between
the holds...those welded solid of course across the hull.

Thats exciting.

No it's not. What thrills you about modern steels used at low
temperatures? It's an everyday occurance. Don't be so afraid.

Exciting is breaking 10 feet thick, multi-year ice with a steel ship hull in
the Arctic.
