Yes she is a very impressive ship never had the fame that the queens had but none the less she carries the name of her country and that alone should warrent enough for her to be preserved, its in a sorry state a bit like britian and america and indeed most of the world today but unfortunatly she was or maybe still is (not sure) in the hand of the NCL norwiegen cruise lines who dont have the best history with preserving ships i must say.

The norway went to scrap recently despite all efforts to save her, the rotterdam is laid up in spain i do believe and the QE2 is on her way to dubai personally i think the QE2 should have remained at sea in her cruising capacity but its a shame to see them go.

Its like a car its the best thing you ever did see when it was new then a few years later the new models come out and your like my car sucks and you loose intrest but theres always people out there who still love them.

It is a shame and she should be preserved even if its for the honour of holding the blue ribband.
