Liner Queen Liz docks in Hong Kong for refit and new role
Hong Kong arrival of the 83,600-ton liner once known as Queen Elizabeth marks a spruce up and shift to a floating international university. The ship, 1,081 feet long, entered the harbor amid launches and a 40 minute water salute, anchored in the western approach due to size. Commodore Marr noted she was not properly dressed as it brought in its black keel and white decks with red funnels.
