Was here in October 23' and I can't wait to go back. Such a cool ship with history just emanating from it. I want to see everything. Turn things on and fix things too.. Or just see things.. 😏

Cool.

9:05 I believe some ships with multiple props, can reverse some to make turning easier.

Nice video Thanks

Thanks for upload was a great tour.

13:08 We called them things "The Navigators Balls."

Thanks for the vid. One of the replies to Alex's vid mentioned not caring for the scene of the metallic sound caught near the staircase. Alex says others have reacted the same way, while I find the paranormal too interesting to not include (do'h! sorry for misspelling your name). It's a real phenomenon, probably some aspect of quantum physics. Your vid gives a better sense of why I've read certain visitors through the years saying how worn-out the QM is All the wood rails in need of a coat of varnish (or stain) stand out the most. So many areas of the ship need constant or eventual maintenance, it must be like having to roll a boulder up a hill. Large signs posted throughout the ship that acknowledge its age & condition (similar to signs of "Pardon our dust") might help offset the disrepair.

if this was the only reason to visit San Diego, I'd happily go

Im here right now

I stayed aboard the QM twice before. Last time was during the week of 9/11/2001. They've change quite a bit since I was there. Added a lot of tour-facilitating stairs and walkways, presentations, etc. When I was there, I was free to roam shaft alley, the turbine area, steering area, saw the thrust blocks, etc. There were a lot more visible catwalks and a lot fewer signs and labels on things. The first time I was there, in the late 90s, there was a mannequin diver "standing" on the propellor. Interestingly, after all the construction, etc., the propellor wrench and fairing are still, exactly where I remember them. The tour recorded in the video was well done. I may never make it back to Long Beach, but I remember my times aboard her well.

This is one of the best tour posts I have seen! Great guide, very informative and helpful. Really enjoyed this and great to see the Queen Mary up and running again :)

My wife and I stayed on the Queen Mary on our 15th anniversary and got a tour of the ship. It is a technological marvel. Even though she is about 90 years old it is still a fascinating ship.

Great tour guide

To bad this ship is so f up

I stood throttle watch on a guided missle destroyer for three years back in the 70s. When our Captain was engrossed in a war game we often played, he would call down to Main Control and ask who was on throttles. If it wasn't me, he would say " wake up Sta*ger and get him on watch!". I was only 18 but I could drag those boilers down to the red line at 1080 psi without pulling them offline. Thank you, Captain. Featherstone for having such confidence in a young very young boy. RIP, Sir.

The war may have been even shorter if the SS Normandie hadn't burnt and been scrapped.

Lagging fires on the turbines was common.

Steam turbines, the gentleman's way to travel, hey? ex P & O engineering officer, SS Nevasa and SS Canberra. hahahaha.

I've always been interested in how the bridge worked and what the crew were responsible for

We have booked an overnight stay on the Queen Mary for mid/end of May. Unfortunately, the hotel ship has not been responding to our inquiries about it for weeks. Perhaps someone here can provide some answers: Can we store our luggage before check-in? Can we access and visit the public areas before check-in? Will there be any restrictions at that time? Disruptive renovations, closed facilities, etc. Thank you to anyone who can help.
