   Fuel, ammunition & stores: 1,126 tons, 11.7 %
   Miscellaneous weights: 970 tons, 10.1 %

Overall survivability and seakeeping ability:
   Survivability (Non-critical penetrating hits needed to sink ship):
     6,323 lbs / 2,868 Kg = 11.8 x 11.0 " / 279 mm shells or 1.1 torpedoes
   Stability (Unstable if below 1.00): 1.20
   Metacentric height 3.6 ft / 1.1 m
   Roll period: 14.2 seconds
   Steadiness   - As gun platform (Average = 50 %): 80 %
         - Recoil effect (Restricted arc if above 1.00): 0.42
   Seaboat quality  (Average = 1.00): 1.42

Hull form characteristics:
   Hull has a flush deck
   Block coefficient: 0.624
   Length to Beam Ratio: 5.08 : 1
   'Natural speed' for length: 18.03 kts
   Power going to wave formation at top speed: 42 %
   Trim (Max stability = 0, Max steadiness = 100): 56
   Bow angle (Positive = bow angles forward): 0.00 degrees
   Stern overhang: 0.00 ft / 0.00 m
   Freeboard (% = measuring location as a percentage of overall length):
      - Stem:      18.00 ft / 5.49 m
      - Forecastle (20 %):   17.00 ft / 5.18 m
      - Mid (50 %):      17.00 ft / 5.18 m
      - Quarterdeck (15 %):   17.00 ft / 5.18 m
      - Stern:      12.62 ft / 3.85 m
      - Average freeboard:   16.75 ft / 5.11 m
   Ship tends to be wet forward

Ship space, strength and comments:
   Space   - Hull below water (magazines/engines, low = better): 100.4 %
      - Above water (accommodation/working, high = better): 97.6 %
   Waterplane Area: 15,559 Square feet or 1,445 Square metres
   Displacement factor (Displacement / loading): 86 %
   Structure weight / hull surface area: 131 lbs/sq ft or 639 Kg/sq metre
   Hull strength (Relative):
      - Cross-sectional: 0.92
      - Longitudinal: 2.17
      - Overall: 1.00
   Hull space for machinery, storage, compartmentation is adequate
   Room for accommodation and workspaces is adequate
   Ship has slow, easy roll, a good, steady gun platform
   Good seaboat, rides out heavy weather easily

4t=4 14in torpedoes

With 10% of normal displacement for rigging/spars/sails/etc.  Should give me virtually unlimited range though.  Barring starvation and dehydration.
