Ship history[edit]

This source is not a RS, but seems to have a good history of the ship, with sources for info noted. May be useful in assisting with expanding the article. Mjroots (talk) 12:20, 10 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Converted to steam power?[edit]

The article currently suggests that the ship was converted to steam power - however "Launches and Trial Trips: Launches—Scotch: Adele". The Marine Engineer and Naval Architect. Vol. 29. 1 November 1909. p. 137. - a contemporary report of the ship's launch refers to Adele as a steam yacht - does this mean that later what rigging the ship had was removed, or that the ship was re-engine?Nigel Ish (talk) 14:19, 7 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
