Second, what speed ships operate at runs the gammut, but what I consider
to be the "big guys": super containerships, tankers and cruise ships,
normally run around 32-36 knots.

Really? I just did a quick google, and apparently QM2 is "The Fastest
current ocean Liner apart from QE2 (approx 30 knots vs. 32.5 knots )" so
which particular cruise ships (etc) do you have in mind?
