  • This, of course, does not include the large air-space above the private wards and dispensary, passages, &c.
  • † Including sliding shutters above private wards.
  • In addition to all there is an open space of 4 inches between the side and roof of ship all round.
  • All the excreta, &c. pass straight into the sea so that only sweet water can ever collect in the bilges, which are ventilated by 2 up and 2 down shafts each 3 ft 9 in circumference.
