Design[edit]

As ...the only ship built to her draught is ambiguous, I was going to change "draught" to "plans", but I do not have Lavery to check that that is indeed the meaning of draught intended - or maybe that article needs a more specific entry for what appears to a common use in warship articles? While strictly true, Lyon & Winfield in The Sail and Steam Navy List note that she was ordered to Henslow's plans for HMS Ville de Paris, but later modified by adding an eleven-foot section only during construction. Colleagues views are welcome. Davidships (talk) 08:45, 23 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
