Geocache Description:

If your visiting the Queen Mary or about to travel the world via a luxury cruise ship this should be a fun fast find for you.

Don't be scared off by the terrain. Its really not that bad! I showed it to my Mom who was in sandals and she insisted it be a 2!

Please tread lightly. Its NOT IN THE BUSHES!!!

Here is how the first part of this propeller's plaque reads.
