But we showed the Spanish Armada and the Krauts at Jutland what real sailing was when it really mattered.
OK the Germans sank more of our ships but we destroyed their will to fight. "German newspapers naturally claimed a glorious victory based on the numbers of ships sunk. It was significant, however, that the German High Seas Fleet did not put to sea again for the rest of World War I and the Royal Navy's British Grand Fleet continued to remain in command of the sea."
