I'll get to this shortly--Sturmvogel 66 (talk) 19:19, 12 March 2024 (UTC)
- Images properly licensed
- Link the guns in the infobox and the main body and tell the reader that they're smoothbores
- Done.
- enhanced barricades what does this mean?
- Having rechecked the source I've actually misread "square-hanced", which I honestly don't recognise as a word. Have changed per source.
- Your sources are pretty comprehensive, but do any of them have more details on why these ships went out of service so quickly? Green timber?
- Unfortunately not. Generally pitch pine ships seem to have become worn and rotted far quicker than oak-built vessels of the period, so it might have been that they were worn out. It could equally have been that they were deemed unsuitable now that the urgent need for frigates had lessened, considering their comparatively paltry armament.
