- she could steam they
- Good catch
- could not be steered at all while under sail So uncontrollable under sail alone? I don't think I've ever seen a steam ship mentioned as bad as that under sail.

- She carried an armament They
- Fixed

- Added

- Hey, I've always said that the easiest way to boost your edit count was to make a mistake and propagate across dozens or hundreds of articles; and then
get caughtnoticed and have to fix them all! You should be grateful to me for this opportunity!--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 15:32, 9 September 2019 (UTC)- Haha, I guess that's true. It turned out to be 295 articles that needed to be fixed (hopefully I haven't missed any) and 2 hours of my time - times like that make me wish I knew how to run a bot.
