Excerpt from Report of the Hohenstein Boiler and Liquid Fuel Boards, 1902: Showing Relative
While the war ship may be nothing more than a gun platform, it requires considerable power to move a platform of tons at a high speed in a heavy sea. This platform is not only expected to be maneuvered rapidly, but to steam uninterruptedly for a distance of one fourth the way around the world. The battle ship that can not make the enemy's coast the first line of defense is limited in the field of its usefulness and when operating at such distance the value of the boiler factor comes only second to the value of the factor of the gun.
The efficiency of the war ship of the several naval powers is simply proportionate to the efficiency of their boilers and the character of their personnel. Neither in armor, armament, or machinery is there any Vital difference between the battle ship of the several nations. In these respects, the last ship, wherever designed, is the best, for as regards draft, tonnage, thickness and extent of armor, character and distribution of guns, and design of machinery, every nation has settled upon a type of vessel that meets its particular requirements, and each navy has therefore secured the best for its particular purpose.
