OK, thought I'd give everybody an update as to where we are: Have gotten through updating all steamers sunk of 300 grt+ built built from 1874 plus virtually all purpose-built warships. In addition, I'm also completed the matching game for most (but not all) ships damaged or taken in as a prize. Also have updated in a variety of other ships as well.

To put it in perspective, about 4,900 incdents of ships sunk, damaged, or captured have now been updated. There are about 400 incidents involving ships of 300 tons or more -- mainly sailing vessels, plus some smaller or older steamers -- that still need to be updated. The are also maybe 2,200 ships under 300 tons that need to be reviewed and updated (should include builder, year built, and operator) as well. OK, there's no way we'll ever get complete information on all of them...

Along the way, as I have some questions about specific vessels, I'll post them in this thread, and hopefully someone will have the answer.

Best wishes,
Michael
