Bell Boy Posted July 8, 2017 #5 Share Posted July 8, 2017 Captain Philpott will take command of the QM2 since Capt Oprey has now retired, I guess he will rotate with Captain Wells. The Commodore of the fleet does not necessarily always have to be on the flag ship , as he has a choice. I guess for personal reasons he has chosen to be in command of the Queen Victoria.

jcruizer Posted July 21, 2017 #17 Share Posted July 21, 2017 Captain Phillpot renewed our vows on Queen Victoria, June 2012, in the Mediterranean. He and my husband seemed to have a bit to talk about. Maybe something to do with the racing cars.... Then we were invited to sit at the Captains table which was nice. A Great cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
