Description

Views taken on board the Queen Elizabeth during a voyage across the Atlantic including high waves and blustery conditions with a few people on deck playing games. In misty weather we see a bell being rung and the camera lingers on the chains used on board. We then see the arrival in New York harbour where the ship is met by a pilot tug and there are views of Manhattan in mist and brief shots of well-wishers on the Cunard White Star quay side taken from the deck of the Queen Elizabeth.
