Vintage 1987 Trek Cruise footage

This just became available on Youtube, I've never seen it. There are a lot of celebs no longer with us on here. An interesting time capsule. Fandom was more innocent then.

The Star Trek cast members sailing were DeForest Kelly (Dr. McCoy), George Takei (Mr. Sulu), Nichelle Nichols (Lt. Uhura), Walter Koenig (Mr. Chekov), James Doohan (Mr. Scott), Grace Lee Whitney (Yeoman Rand), Majel Barrett (Nurse Chapel), Mark Lenard (Ambassador Sarek) and David Gerrold (wrote The Trouble With Tribbles episode).

Andrew Probert, fresh off of designing the E-D is on here too.

Very cool time capsule. Interesting to hear James Doohan's thoughts on Next Generation - he reminds me of my great uncle!

Thanks for this! Due to medical problems, my memories are shot to pieces, so it was a great gift to see myself sitting next to Grace Lee Whitney (I'm the geek with glasses sitting to her left in the lounge, visible at about 19 minutes in). What few bits of memory I do still have were of a great time, as I got to be her escort for the weekend, and enjoyed some private time not only with Grace, but also with the other guests - and Jimmy Doohan's wife, a wonderful and VERY funny lady. Once again, thank you VERY much for this!

Thanks for this!

Thanks for this!

Have you found any more of these videos from the West cruise? I'd love to see the video of Grace singing. I shot over 20 rolls of still photos of it, but lose them in a series of house moves.

I'm not the OP, friend. Looks like a banned member.

Rats! Just my luck - like they said on "Hee Haw"', if it weren't for bad luck, I'd have no luck at all! Thanks anyway, I shall continue the search. In the meantime, if anybody wants to see the East Cruise from 1987, there's a couple entries for that, and I think there's something from the 1989 Cruise (which I and my newfound wife were on). I'll review it for y'all, once I get to watch it a few times. Thanks again!
