Yea that would be the Federal Gov't designation as a nastional historic landmark...the way around that is to register the ship outside the US, which NCL has just done.

I hope that NCL really gets screwed for this, but they wont. They have lied and have acted very "under the table" in their dealings about this ship... and now the real sad thing is they own a national historic landmark (the United States) which needs TLC bad, as she is rusting away, but if nothing is done soon, she too will end up on that beach...

And just recently they had her ownership papers transfered so that she is no longer registered in the us... i only can only imagine what that means.

That is great video...  the documentary looks very nice as well.

yesterday 3 bodies were found in a ship of workers that had been missing for a month... im sure that news like this will keep things focused on how things are done over there.

Oops double post, sorry :oops:

But in thinking, what will happen to the QE2 when the time comes- will she suffer the same fate or will the loss of the the France polarize the Liner community to push more towards conservation and preservation?

Sad news for us, but what may be even worse, is that from what i understand, due to restrictions we may not see much of her final days.
