In Response To: Re: QM2 (Mary1973)

I wouldn't doubt it! LOL!
Actually, it extends more than 100 feet beyond its berth at the Passenger Ship Terminal.
It had to arrive at low tide because the Queen Mary 2 had to make it under the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. If the ship were to sail under at high tide, the clearance would be only 13 feet!
Below is a link for the webcam at Pier 92.

Queen Mary 2 is the largest (151,400 tons), longest (1,132 feet/345 metres), tallest (236 feet/ 72 metres), widest (135 feet/41 metres) and most expensive ($800 million) liner ever built. It is also the first true transatlantic liner to have been built since Cunard’s famous Queen Elizabeth 2 entered service in May 1969.

On April 25, both QM2 and QE2 will depart from the cruise terminal, at 7:30pm and 7:45pm respectively, sail down the Hudson River and slowly pass the Statue of Liberty at 8:30pm with a fireworks display by Grucci.
If you are interested, There are a number of locations throughout New York City where the general public will be able to enjoy spectacular views of the Queen Mary 2 as she passes along the Hudson River. (Note: due to security and traffic concerns, the public is advised to avoid the area surrounding the Passenger Ship Terminal)

* Hudson River Park public piers along the west side of Manhattan.

* Chelsea Piers (23rd Street and West Side Highway)

* Battery Park

* The Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum (46th St & the West Side Highway)

* Shore Parkway in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn

* Staten Island near the Verrazano Narrows Bridge

Cheers!
