The Masters of Cunard’s three ship fleet mustered by the funnel of flagship Queen Mary 2 ahead of the spectacular sail away this afternoon to mark the start of the celebrations for Cunard’s 175th anniversary year.
The Three Queens - Queen Elizabeth, Queen Victoria and Queen Mary 2 returned from their World Cruises today, arriving into Southampton in the early morning.
After a rare opportunity for the three Captains to meet up together on the same vessel, the masters will take command of their respective ships and for the first time the fleet will sail together in daylight from Cunard’s homeport of Southampton led by Queen Mary 2.
Commodore Christopher Rynd, Master of Queen Victoria, is joined on the distinctive red funnel that characterises all three ships by Captain Chris Wells, Master of Queen Mary 2 and Captain Inger Klein Thorhauge, Master of Queen Elizabeth and Cunard’s first ever female Captain.
