MarkBearSF Posted May 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Is the big bell still on the QM2 and used for noontime clock changes? I heard it was relocated immediately after the refit, but recall it last May. In following the reports of the QE2 hotel project, there were some reports of the QE2 bell being returned. Is it the same bell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_BJ Posted May 17, 2018 #5 Share Posted May 17, 2018 btw ... this is a 'ceremonial' bell ...... a ship is required to have a bell (out side) in order to comply with the International Rules Of The Road" which in rule 35g says a vessel at anchor ...... ring the bell rapidly ..... this means a bell 'outside' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
