Identifying: Ships

Ok. So we all know about displacement - Archimedes’ eureka moment and all that. But metal is too heavy to float. Therefore, we conclude that ships are magic (Note that there’s no ‘k’ on the end of magic and that, therefore, this has nothing to do with misogynistic sensational titillationalist Aleister Crowley). No. Ships are just plain magic.

If your Granddad was in the Navy during the war, he’d have used charts just like this. So, be at-one with your ancestors and print out this comprehensive chart - you’ll never feel ignorant again.
