Creator's Key Takeaways

another unique feature of the qm2's design is her Stern

the design Blends the traditional Cruiser's turn with the modern and efficient transom stones

this allows maximum efficiency and strength essential for transatlantic travel

the trouble is in rough weather when the ship is pitching the great flat transom coming in and out of the water you get a lot of wave action underneath
