Keel laying ceremony for Cunard's Queen Victoria

A ceremony marking the keel laying for Cunard Line’s Queen Victoria has been held at the Marghera shipyard of Fincantieri near Venice, Italy. The second largest ship ever built for Cunard will take to the water in January next year and enter service on 11th December 2007. It will become the third in Cunard’s fleet of Queens when she joins Queen Mary 2, the largest liner in the world, and QE2, the most famous ship in the world.
