1437. KUANG-TUNG SHUI SHIH KE CHUN LUN CHUAN 廣東水師各軍翰

:-The Steam Naval Forces of Kuang-tung province, or the Canton Provincial Steam Flect. In the year 1884 there were altogether fifty-six stcam vessels of various sorts and sizes belonging to the provincial authorities of Kuang-tung.

The best of the steamers, the lèng Chao Hai, Chên-to and An Lan, are neither new, powerful nor fust, though serviceable craft for sea-going gun- boats. Some of the others are of the alphabetical class, but they have been so badly kept that they are far from reliable as to steam power. Some of the vesels are hardly fit to go to sea; though not old in point of age they are not sound, and never were very swift or powerful, even for their class. The rest are nothing better than pleasure boats or steam launches for riverine purposes.
