    Hey Stephen

    This is very impressive!

    The QE2 has also carried more than 2.5 million passengers, completed 25 world cruises, crossed the Atlantic 802 times and is still the fastest merchant ship in operation - being able to go faster backwards than most cruise ships can go forwards, the spokesperson added.
