Please read up on how a sailing rig works, because right now you wouldn't even be able to hang a sail from it, let alone sail with it.
Look up two masted schooners and Ketches because there's no way to make a yawl out of it with your current hull.
Yeah, she's actually a ketch, I always get yawls and ketches mixed up. As for rigging, I will work on that, it's my first attempt at a non-square sail main.
On the other hand putting a sailing rig on a Virginia style ironclad is rather pointless since you won't have the deck-space to work it.
She's not entirely like the Virginia and other Confederate ironclads in that there is no 'roof' structure over the top. this is so that the sails and lines can be worked from behind the angled 'walls'.
The main problem with the story of the yacht is that it is without armor, which would have been riveted to the boat. It would be too labor-intensive to strip it of its armor instead of building a more spacious state yacht.
Good point, maybe I'll keep the hull armor and remove the superstructure when I do the yacht.
