If I remember well, it was a while a feature of the royal navy for the plates to finish at an angle with a batten, while continental ships (and american?) preferred  1 to 3 layers of horizontal layers on the waterline.

 

Is this correct?

So could I use two rows of horizontal layers of copper plates at the waterline on my Syren?
