Well, I know the seakeeping is low- but at 700', I think things do kinda start to get relative.
It's probably a boat that makes it's crew miserable and can't steam very fast at all into any appreciable weather, but does OK on flat seas.
So 'ere's to you, Fuzzy-Wuzzy, at your 'ome in old Baghdad;
You're a pore benighted 'eathen but a first-class fightin' man;
We gives you your certificate, an' if you want it signed
We'll come an' 'ave a romp with you whenever you're inclined.

Thats a fast Battle Ship not a Battle Cruiser..... in the historical sense.  She is way way to heavily armored to be a Battle Cruiser.
