On Febuarary 4, 2007, the mammoth Queen Mary 2 cruise liner passed beneath the Golden Gate bridge, clearing the bottom of the span by 27 feet and then docking at Pier 27 on fishermans wharf.

The ship was greeted by hundreds of sailboats and other craft as it slowly passed thousands of onlookers onshore.

The Queen Mary 2 is the largest ship to ever enter San Francisco Bay. The vessel displaces 151,000 tons. It is 134.5 feet wide and 1,131 feet long and carries 2,620 passengers with a crew of 1,250. This ship is 1,131.9 feet long.

Watching this ship move precariously unnder the golden gate bridge brought me back to a few years earlier when some of the worlds largest cranes in the world barely slid under the highest point of the span.

A ticket for a first class berth on the ship's current around-the world-in-81-days voyage costs $185,905 per person. The least-expensive cabin for the trip is $21,185. Portions of the voyage are cheaper -- the 14-day trip from San Francisco, sailing Feb. 5, is $36,559 at the high end and $4,199 for an inside cabin.
