Details
DescriptionOne of the largest passenger ships afloat was in Wellington on her maiden voyage to New Zealand. It is 3 metres longer than QUEEN MARY 2 but it can be seen from the photo that they could be cheating with the stern design. Passenger ship owners have done this for years by using gross tonnage to describe the vessel size.
