QM2 Captain?

[transatlantic fan]

Does anyone know who is the Captain at present?

Well leaving New York on June 4 it was Captain Christopher Rynd.

And Chris Rynd is a very personable fellow!

 

He ws Staff Captain on three of our Princess cruises, once on the (old) Pacific Princess, once on Sky Princess, and last time on Royal Princess.

 

He did conduct the Sunday Church Services in his capacity as Staff Captain, and was quoted in one interview as saying had he not gone to sea, he might well have entered the ministry.

Couldn't agree more! On my crossing on the QE2 he was often out & about the ship chatting to passengers - I also got the impression that he runs a pretty tight ship - longest drills of crew I have ever seen on Cunard.

Yes - I also got the impression that he is a "taskmaster" who sets very high standards; perhaps off-putting to some, but fine by me.

Sam Cunard would have approved!
