I was on the last voyage of the Mary. I was sixteen at the time, and I remember the day very well. I think there was at least six Coast guard vessels keeping back the thousands of small boats that came out to greet us. It was a trul great day. I know she is only metal. But I have always had great fondness for her, and I very hapy she did not end up like her sister.

Indeed it is a good thing. They Attempted to Save the SS America but Mother Nature got in the way. The SS Independence is in danger of being scrapped, and of course the SS United States has always been in danger since she was laid up in 1969, any one who loves ocean liners should write to the US Senate to have the Big U preserved

Very nice! I was there. I was 15. We stood on the rocks at the water's edge and watched her sail in surrounded by hundreds of sail boats, power boats and fire boats spraying water. I had my dad's super 8 camera and my own instamatic. What great memories!

Comparing the SS US and the Independence to the Queen Mary is like comparing a 1936 Packard to a Taurus. The United States was never a great ship. The US A surrendered the Trans At race in 1919 when we ratified Prohibition. We never made it back--we went to the skies instead.
It's fortunate that a good group is making an effort to truly restore the Queen Mary, but Long Beach isn't exactly rolling in wealth and such efforts don't attract big money. I hope it works, she deserves it.

@Gryphonalia Au contraire! The United States was THE greatest ship, the pinnacle of marine engineering and design.
