Creator's Key Takeaways
Recycling of shipboard materials isn't limited to full scrapping of a vessel.
It also occurs during refits and transformations.
For example, the QE2's re-engineering in the 1980s was a massive undertaking that yielded thousands of tons of scrap metal.
Even the ship's propellers were recycled with one of them being turned into golf clubs.
