In 2016 the Queen Mary 2 ship of the distinguished Cunard Line cruise company's fleet underwent a 25-day refit in Hamburg.
Crowds lined the harbourside of the Elbe to watch the ocean liner docking at Blohm+Voss.
During her stay in Hamburg not only did she receive renewed propellers and paintwork, but also added indoor space on the top deck, as well as an extensive internal refurbishment. #QM2Remastered

Such a Grand Lady! We sailed on her in October, 2004. This was a very special cruise as my husband emigrated to Canada on the original QM in 1951, as a very wee boy.

Nautical Study: The QM2 may be technically a "OCEAN LINER" but she still looks more like a cruise ship. High Decks, no rudder, no traditional propellers system. I HATE THAT!!!!! She does NOT have the graceful looks of a traditional trans-atlantic ocean liner.

They say , naively that it is a Liner ! Its not . I wouldnt go on the thing again if it were in the river estuary . A force 4 in Biscay sent the ship into a virtual somersault Captain s warning of rolling and pitching badly scarred half to death most unlike QE2 when in same area in a force 8 , I had to go to the side of the ship to see if it was till moving , as it was so steady. If I could wave a magic wand, Dubaii would re introduce QE2 to seagoing service tomorrow. and this maritime abortion could be packed off to Alang

Unfortunately, it’s the passenger demands which have shaped the design of passenger vessels since the days of the classic ocean liner, and this is how those demands have been met, while still preserving the ocean liner design

@mdstras 2 жыл бұрын

in order for a true oceanliner to be profitable in a modern market, they must have modern amenities found on most passenger vessels (cruise ships) such as balconies, etc to be profitable. Anyone who thinks a liner should look like ones of old has their heads in the clouds. It is for the sole reason of profitability and competition in a modern market, that makes it necessary for Oceanliners in today’s world to have balconies

@jonathanpardoe8722 2 жыл бұрын

Yes I know progress has produced a more efficient ship for the cruise line to operate rather than the ship the passengers loved in QE2 and this monster ticks most of the boxes ... but not for me . I had a dreadful time on the thing . I am a boat builder and honestly was staggered when I looked at the poor quality of the welding around the Constanzi stern that must have been carried out by a monkey. The illfitting fake stern end to try and make it look like QE2 was about 12 inches on the skew . In every other respect I was disappointed when compared to QE2 , accomodation, food , internal arrangements and dont even ask about the foul Kings court cafe . surly staff , and absolutely abysmil sea keeping qualities that couldnt keep up with QE2 even if that ship just went on impulse engines only . qm2 is more than half way through its life and good riddance when its gone to Alang
