Captain Thorhauge.

"The Times on Line" (London, UK) have published a image of Captain Thorhauge being measured for her new Captains uniform.

"Inger Thorhauge, a Cunard captain, receives a final fitting for her uniform from the Savile Row master tailor Kathryn Sargent at her shop in Mayfair, central London. Thorhauge will welcome the first guests on board the new Queen Anne ship in Southampton on May 3".

Hopefully Cunard will obtain a copy of the image and place in an archive. 

Happy  sailing.

Am I right that with the retirement of Commodore Wells Captain Thorhauge is Cunard's senior Captain? Or is it Captain Hashmi?

Our 1st cruise with her was Sept 2012 Black Sea.

Hope it's a better fitting and less masculine than the one she previously wore.

I noticed from the photo she was being taken care of by a female master tailor, hopefully the new uniform will have slight feminine angle to it.

Our 1st cruise with her was in 1997. Long before she became captain.😄

Captain Hashmi was deputy to Captain Wells on our QE USA and Canada crise in 2011.

I was on the same cruise, one month after you. Outstanding. I’m glad we jumped on that opportunity before that window closed.

I had some time this morning to look it up. Yes Captain Thorhauge is the Senior Captain having her first Cunard command in 2010 (Queen Victoria). Captain Hashmi's first Cunard command was in  2013.

I thought the position of Commodore was scrapped when Christopher Rynd retired?

It was, however, Capt Wells received an honorary title of Commodore 'After he retired'

I can't see the point of that , doubt anyone in his local supermarket refers to him as the Commodore 😉

[JT1101]

Honorary or not they did promote him when he retired.
