Different types of engine versus sail (and versus one another)
There’s no mention of the fact that it was (apparently) the steam turbine engine, combined with the internal-combustion engine for smaller and shorter-range craft, that put a final end to sail for practical navigation, where the steam piston engine had not entirely done so. This surely deserves mention. Zhnirlwaupp (talk) 15:42, 5 March 2015 (UTC)
