I take it this was the transatlantic with the two freak 90ft waves in rapid succession?

On this day, May 2, 1969, our beloved QE2 set off on her Maiden Trans-Atlantic crossing !

Who made this crossing with her ?

A toast to QE2 !   :)

By 13 October 1972 QE2 had completed her 100th Scheduled Transatlantic Crossing and on 9 August 1990 she completed her 500th Scheduled Transatlantic crossing.  A milestone we can commemorate today 9 August.

Looking forward to learning more information on this milestone and other milestones for QE2 to add to this topic.

I was proud to be involved with planning QE2's 50 year conference in September 2017 in Clydebank

Today 4 December is the anniversary of QE2 completing her first one million miles when she sailed from Antigua to Boston on 4 December 1975.  I noticed this on the QE2 timeline topic

and when looking for a topic about QE2's milestones I came across this topic where Stowaway2K had posted lots of QE2 anniversary dates

Good to take time to read from the beginning of the topic.  :)
