Algerine class gunvessel : ウィキペディア英語版 | Algerine-class gunvessel
The ''Algerine''-class gunvessel was a class of three Royal Navy composite gunvessels built in 1880. Two of them were sold after only 10 years of service, but the other was converted to a survey ship before commissioning and survived in this role until 1907. ==Design and construction== Designed in 1879 by Nathaniel Barnaby, the Chief Constructor of the Royal Navy, the ''Algerine''-class gunvessels were similar to the s of 1875, but with the addition of a poop deck.〔 It had been found that the addition of both poop and focsle made gunvessels far more comfortable in the tropics; an awning spread between the two allowed men to sleep on the upper deck during hot nights. The composite method of construction used iron for the keel, stem, stern post and framing, with wooden planking. As well as the benefits of low cost, this construction allowed repairs to be conducted easily when away from well-equipped dockyards.〔 This was the last class of composite gunvessels built for the Royal Navy.〔
