Other than Culloden, the only British ships seriously damaged in their hulls were Bellerophon, Majestic and Vanguard, while Bellerophon and Majestic were the only ships to lose masts: Majestic the main and mizzen and Bellerophon all three.

Thirteen years after being raised, the ships were burned during an attack in the Second World War, and almost nothing remains of the hulls, though many archeological treasures remain intact in the museum at Lake Nemi and in the Museo Nazionale Romano ( Palazzo Massimo ) at Rome.

Although details of their physiology were not mentioned on screen, the space slug, ( a giant worm-like creature that lived on asteroids in the vacuum of space ), and the Mynock, ( pesky bat-like vermin that would attach to spaceship hulls and chew through power conduits to feed off the raw energy ), are said to be silicon-based organisms in Star Wars Expanded Universe sources.

Often hulls were built of steel only 1 / 8in thick.

Like the larger 74 which was developed at the same time, the new frigates sailed very well and were good fighting vessels due to a combination of long hulls and low upperworks compared to vessels of comparable size and firepower.

The list of ' modern ' world champions extended into the 1980s, when the sport entered the catamaran, and then the ' superboat ' era-the 1000 cubic inch total engine displacement restrictions were lifted for boats over in length, and soon three-and four-engine boats sporting F16 fighter canopies replaced the venerable vee hulls that had been the sport's top category for twenty years.

Various proposals for disposal of those hulls were considered, including sinking them at sea, but none were economically practical.

In the 1860s, however, the major build-up of naval and military infrastructure brought vital money into Bermuda at a time when its traditional maritime industries were giving way under the assault of steel hulls and steam propulsion.

The original pre – World War I torpedo boats were designed with " displacement " hulls.

A somewhat odd footnote is that even though only half as many Higgins boats were produced, far more survive ( seven hulls, 3 of which have been restored to their World War II configuration ), than of the more numerous Elco boats, thus seemingly demonstrating the superior construction of the Higgins boat.

In the 1860s, however, the major build-up of naval and military infrastructure brought vital money into Bermuda at a time when its traditional ( cedar-and sail cloth-based ) maritime industries were giving way under the assault of steel hulls and steam propulsion.

The hulls of these ships were painted a stark white, giving the armada the nickname " Great White Fleet ".

The Allied navies at this time were still deploying essentially the same technology as during the Napoleonic Wars: sailing ships, unarmoured wooden hulls and muzzle-loading smoothbore cannon.

The navies, especially the British one, had ignored the new technologies that were to transform them by the 1850s: steam propulsion, ironclad hulls, rifled guns and explosive shells.

Boat hulls were built at his boatyard ( owned in partnership with a man named Morgan Gaskill ), located on 3rd street in the 1830s and 1840s.

Initially the hulls were constructed of wood, with lines like those of any other small merchant ship.

Called BACAT, for Barges Aboard Catamaran, the system consisted of trains of barges, which were pushed by a tug, and which would be loaded between the twin hulls of a custom-built delivery ship.

VW Schwimmwagens were both produced by the Volkswagen factory at Fallersleben / Wolfsburg, as well as by Porsche's facilities in Stuttgart ; with the bodies ( or rather hulls ) produced by Ambi Budd in Berlin.

The cannons of 18th century men of war were accurate only at short range, and their penetrating power mediocre, entailing that thick hulls of wooden ships could only be pierced at short ranges.

Following the submarines ' large trail of debris led Ballard and his team directly to both of them and made it significantly easier for them to locate the submarines than if they were to search for the hulls directly.

Historically most brigs were made of wood, although some latter brigs were built with hulls and masts of steel or iron ( such as the brig Bob Allen ).

All Cardassian warships seen so far are painted ochre, and have backwards-swept delta winged hulls ( resembling the Cardassian national symbol ); the delta wings resemble fins, giving the Cardassian ships the appearance of predatory rays.

Later lightships, for purposes of visibility, normally had bright red hulls which displayed the name of the station in white upper case letters ; relief light vessels displayed the word RELIEF instead.

They can be recognised by their black hulls with white beading and buff-coloured upperworks.

During the milling processes, the hulls are removed from the raw grain to reveal whole brown rice, which may then sometimes be milled further to remove the bran layer, resulting in white rice.

After the end of World War II, a number of the Royal Navy's MTBs were stripped and the empty hulls sold for use as houseboats.

Because bomb vessels were built with extremely strong hulls to withstand the recoil of the mortars, several were converted in peacetime as ships for exploration of the Arctic and Antarctic regions, where pack ice and icebergs were a constant menace.

The hulls ( eight in all ) for " one of the world's largest peacetime submarine fleets " cost $ 80, 000 each to build.

For most of this time these cruisers were built with a " protected ", rather than armoured scheme of protection for their hulls.

They travel in macabre ships stained with blood and decorated with corpses chained to the hulls.

This usually takes the form of a carrier, such as rice hulls, wheat bran, or sawdust, that has been inoculated with composting micro-organisms.

Composite clippers had the strength of iron spars with wooden hulls, and copper sheathing could be added to prevent the fouling that occurred on iron hulls.

* There is no need for mechanical structures to withstand bending forces ; vehicles or hulls can be very light or dispensed with all together

This is in contrast to normal hulls which just slide over a whale with minimal damage to both.

) from different manufacturers are usually all interchangeable, shotshells typically are loaded for particular brands of shotshell cases ( called hulls ) only with one specific brand of wad, shot cup ( if used ), primer, and powder, further increasing the complexity and difficulty of reloading shotshells.

Many modern kayaks have modified the traditional design in various ways, such as: eliminating the cockpit by seating the paddler on top of the boat (" sit-on-top " kayaks ); having inflated air chambers surrounding the boat ; replacing the single hull by twin hulls (" W " kayak ), and replacing paddles with other human powered propulsion methods, such as foot-powered rotational propellers and ' flippers '.

The hulls are impervious to any type of matter or energy, with the exception of antimatter ( which destroys the hull ), gravitation, and visible light ( which pass through the hull ).

Multihulls include: Proas, which have two differently shaped or sized hulls with lateral symmetry ; catamarans, which have two hulls with longitudinal symmetry ; and trimarans, which have a main hull in the center and symmetric stabilizing hulls on either side.

Fabio Buzzi took a giant step forward with the introduction of glass-reinforced polymer hulls, turbo-charged engines, and integral surface drives and the 90's subsequently saw the emergence of the Michael Peter's design and Tencara and Victory hulls dominate, with Sterling, Lamborghini, Seatek and more recently, Mercury sharing the power battle.

The four wild species of wheat, along with the domesticated varieties einkorn, emmer and spelt, have hulls.

It became a common scene to observe melted Sheridan hulls with their sunken steel turrets sitting at odd angles with their gun tubes pointing towards the sky in various parts of the country, either awaiting final disposition, or simply forgotten.

These range from 2 -, 3-and 4-cylinder models generating 15 to 135 horsepower suitable for hulls up to in length, to powerful V6 and V8 cylinder blocks rated up to., with sufficient power to be used on boats of or longer.

Magnetic moment displacement is ostensibly the main disturbance, yet submarines are detectable even when oriented parallel to the Earth's magnetic field, despite construction with non-ferromagnetic hulls.

Junk ( ship ) | Chinese boats from Zhang Zeduan's ( 1085 – 1145 ) painting Along the River During Qingming Festival ; Chinese ships of the Song period featured Hull ( watercraft ) | hulls with Bulkhead ( partition ) | watertight compartments.
