Well, from the Navy‘s standpoint, Charles II was a godsent. He‘s the founder of a standing Royal Navy, after all. He built as may ships as Parliament would alow him to do and he even tricked them into spending much more money on the Navy than they had initially intended. If you’re interested, the books „The Master Shipwright's Secrets : How Charles II Built the Restoration Navy“ and „Pepys's Navy: Ships, Men and Warfare“ would be a very good read.

Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll seek it out.
Nice video bud, they just keep getting better :)
Bit more prep before filming would make for a more interesting watch.
