EIGHT FUNNELS at ANCHOR

Nostalgic view of Funchal Bay on 13 June 1933 with two four-funneled British passenger liners at anchor: the famous Cunard liner MAURETANIA in white cruising livery and Union-Castle Mail Steam Navigation Company's ARUNDEL CASTLE on her normal call within the Southampton - Cape mal run.

Two of my favourite ships, the legendary QUEEN ELIZABETH 2 of 1969 and the handsome Portuguese cruise ferry LOBO MARINHO of 2003 photographed early in the morning in the port of Funchal, Madeira Island, on 31 December 2006.

I have done a book on each of the two ships in the photograph in my series LINER BOOKS and PORTUGUESE SHIPS...
