          Remarks: 

     Relative extent of belt armor,
     80 percent of 'typical' coverage. 

     Ship has slow, easy roll;
     a good, steady gun platform. 

     Good seaboat; rides out heavy weather easily. 

     Magazines and engineering spaces are roomy,
     with superior
     watertight subdivision. 

     Ship is roomy, with
