Thanks to a hot tip from Abay Paparazzi I was able to FINALLY get some video of the largest cruise ship that I have ever seen come down the Saint Lawrence.

The THE MS HAMBURG  formerly called the C.Columbus


WOW.. WATCH THE VIDEO..




From Wikipedia..

"MS Hamburg is a 15,000-ton, 420 passenger, luxury cruise ship owned by the Conti Group; and is now operated by Plantours Kreuzfahrten. She was built in 1997, in Wismar, Germany. Her relative size allows her to transit the Great Lakes in North America, which she cruised seasonally between 1997 and 2011 - one of the few modern cruise ships and the only German one able to do so (she will return as ms Hamburg in 2014). However, she is flexible enough to cruise worldwide as well, for example travelling the Mediterranean for cultural cruises withMartin Randall Travel. Her crew complement consists of 170,[3] and her top speed is 16knots."
