Black Seas Gunboat Squadron pike-shotte An easy way to expandA gunboat squadron is like a gnat in comparison to the larger ships of the line. Nevertheless, they have a useful place in the fleet. A gunboat would typically have only a single mast with square rigged sails, mounting between one and three fixed cannons. Fleets of all navies kept gunboats on hand. They could be useful in shallower waters, as with only a single mounted cannon, they were able to manoeuvre relatively easily where a large ship could not.
