What does this mean?? please
We were given clothes because I'd only got my nightclothes and a blanket around me. I had nightmares from the time it sank until I was 23. And though I wouldn't like to say I'm not frightened of the sea, I lost a lot of the horror. I've never been in anything touching the Titanic. A beauty. She was lovely.

' I've never been in anything' ??

Answer

"I've never been in anything touching the Titanic." Actually, this grammar is incorrect. However, what I think they meant was: since sailing on the Titanic they haven't sailed/ridden on any other ship nicer than the Titanic. No other ship since that time could "touch" come close to the beauty of the Titanic.

I hope that helps to answer your question. ^^
