It looks a wee bit like Norwegion Epic, which looks very top heavy, and ready for a Poseidon incident. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshirephil Posted April 30 #57932 Share Posted April 30 Cracking day here, lovely and sunny all day and very warm. Sat out for breakfast then stayed out all day. I even got the shed painted. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splice the mainbrace Posted April 30 #57933 Share Posted April 30 Queen Anne is apparently (I looked it up I'm not a ship nerd!!) a Pinnacle class ship only Holland America has the 2 other ships of the class so far. I like the look of it, I always think that the colour scheme of Cunard ships is more attractive and traditional than some other cruise lines. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never judge a book or ship for that matter by it's cover as they say . We like the look of her but doubt we will ever see artistes dangling from the roof or water slides aboard her . We would not say no to a jaunt on her . 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like they just added balconies and windows to a stack of containers, perhaps designed by AI. 😂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purdey16 Posted April 30 #57939 Share Posted April 30 Well I must say we had an enjoyable time joining the flotilla for Queen Ann and here’s when Ventura passed. IMG_5722.mov 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckett Posted April 30 #57941 Share Posted April 30 Mmmmm. Jury's out for me. Her backside looks a bit like a roll on roll off ferry. I'm a bit disappointed. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josy1953 Posted April 30 #57942 Share Posted April 30 I was just reading our MP's monthly newsletter and was amazed to see that we now have a bus service from our area. I may give it a try the next time I need to go into the city centre rather than take the car. I can no longer winge that I have a bus pass but no bus. 🤣 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's lovely. Actually looks like a Cunard ship, the jury is out until I see inside her on the 24th but so far I'm pleased. She's actually smaller than Ventura which is a step.in the right direction after Arvia and Iona. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MB if you check her stats theres not a great deal of difference between her and Ventura, she is quite a bit a longer than Ventura but a tad narrower, and her passenger and crew numbers are very similar. In fact she will carry far more passengers than the other 3 Queens. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lincslady Posted May 1 #57950 Share Posted May 1 Good morning, everyone. I hope you were as lucky as me, getting 7 hours of sleep. It makes such a difference to your morning mood, doesn't it. All the nicer because it is not the norm. A bit misty here in the East Mids., but it is May and going to be reasonably warm later. Have a good day, if at all possible! 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
