♦ t THE REVIEW y y After completing the transit of the first two locks, the ROYAL anchored in Lake St. Louis for the greatest event of the cruise --review by President Eisenhower and Her Majesty the Queen of England. Many days of planning and practice had prepared her for this day. A group of about 15 ships, 8 American and 7 Canadian, lined up to take the review. They were the best of the fleets, smart, shipshape and ready. With all ships at full dress and manning the rails we awaited the arrival of HMY BRITANNIA. To the thunderous roll of a 15 ship 21-gun salute she arrived. We of the ROYAL will long remember the Yacht passing close aboard to port as the ROYAL ' S ere sounded off with HIP -HIP -HOORAY, HIP -HIP -HOORAY , HIP -HIP -HOORAY. AS J 1

HII1II3I, U]]] X H —————— After the review, the ROYAL got underway for the first city of the four to be visited, DETROIT, MICH. But first there were thirteen locks to transit. She cleared the Upper and Lower Beauharnois, Iroquois, Snell and Eisen- hower in the new section of the Seaway. The ROYAL passed through the scenic Thousand Island section of New York where it appeared she was travelling in a residential area rather than an International ship channel. We were within feet of houses and backyards. After clearing the Thousand Island area we crossed Lake Ontario and anchored with other Navy and Merchant ships off Port Weller waiting for a radio call to go through the Welland Canal, which bypasses the Niagara Falls.
