Well there's a waterspout

Well shiver me timbers me hearties, there is a fine vessel, the HMS Venerabile with its 21 gun salute for us all as we sail out of Portsmouth and the Sound on the Solent. And not far behind us is the new fangled steamship, the newly decommissioned Temeraire, an experiment that is not universally liked, as most of the sailors of the Line prefer sail and rope.
