Re: GUESS THE SHIP................
Actually, I goofed and accidentially posted that last ship a day early, meant it for today.
So I guess the april fool joke is on me.
(All guesses on that one are correct, I have no idea what ship that is. Titanic prototype, maybe.)

HMS Turbinia.
HMS Turbinia built by C A Parsons, she was a prototype of the torpedo boat destroyers. She is pictured on the Seine in front of the building which was devoted to the the Land and Sea Armaments of the Paris Exhibition c.1900.
A new personal best for me, answered it in 32 minutes.

Re: GUESS THE SHIP................
Here's a different one.
I don't want the name/number of the submarine - just her class and what was different about them
(CLUE: Royal Navy)
I don't know what the warship in the background is.
