To be replaced with a much bigger ship sometime in the future. BTW, this crossing can be done in much less than 5 days. The United States did it in about 3 on its maden voyage. And I too wish I could cross the atlantic by ship. I hate flying. At this time of year the QE2 is doing transatlantic runs. Give it a try, its a great ship and I will meet you on the quayside here in Southampton. Gerry Kit McChesney | acmefoto wrote: Gosh. I wish they had transatlantic crossings for passengers (not just merchant marines) by ship these days. Used to be, so I'm told, you could take a tanker or a cargo ship across the waters ... is this still true? Has anyone ever done this, or done it recently?
