The Ottomans might we well served with two classes here, I think, as Korpen suggests.

In fact, the Confederate Naval Attaché serendipitously (almost as if he was reading Ottoman minds I tell you!) has just delivered a brochure containing the particulars of the current class of Confederate torpedo boats for Ottoman review:

A quick back of the envelope calculation reveals the expected range of such a boat with 90% coal fuel to be 2350 nm at 12 knots, or roughly 8 hours at max speed.

The Zionite Lavis, as designed, not only pack 5x5" guns but can also carry 50 mines.

New Zion is not allowed to sell completed ships to other countries, but the treaty says nothing about exporting oil fired turbines...

I don't see the space for the deck layout for that ship that would work.  If you want to sell some tech I will soon be putting out requests for the ottomans.
