Talk about your dry-dock "Cliff Notes." Cunard has condensed 20 days of work, re-fitting and re-furbishing the Queen Elizabeth, into a four-minute video. Among other things, nine new single staterooms were created, 25,000 square meters of carpeting laid, 3,000 mattresses replaced, 1,200 flat screen TVs installed and new awnings added on the sun decks.
Over 20 days in May and June, they note "950 contractors worked with ship’s staff around the clock to complete the work at the Blohm+Voss yard in Hamburg, Germany, drinking 54,300 cups of coffee, more than 35,000 cups of tea and 9,000 bottles of water, and consuming more than 80,000 meals – with 13,500 sachets of tomato sauce - over the duration of the 265,000 man-hour project." Workers have to eat, right?
Let's cue the video:
