In answer to Question 1 - Sovereign of the Seas launched in 1987, beat QE2 on tonnage at 73,529.

In answer to Question 2....loads of em

Had a bit of time to do some research in answer to question 2 and came up with a list of 182 ships over 70,000 tons
constructed since 1988....that's a lot of Steel and Aluminium

List is attached - sourced via Wikipedia

Impressive list although P&O's Iona - sister to Arvia - appears to be missing - and Noble Caledonia's Island Sky is definitely NOT 90600 tons - only carries just over 100 passengers!
