Message: [QUOTE="B Portwig, post: 430281, member: 170058"] passenger ships and ocean liners - are completely different to cruise ships and what they offered - in 56 years of being an enthusiast of shipping - and having amassed quite a collective library of such - the market for cruise ships has skyrocketed in years - and good for that - however the romance of the old liners had an appeal and nostalgic - that few cruise ships can match - i was luck to have spent 5 days on board the queen mary in 1994 - she was very much still under renovation in some parts - but the sheer class and styling is from a by gone era - as opposed to the amenities offered on cruise ships today [/QUOTE]
