    I think Doug either goes to bed very late or gets up very early as he is always up with the answer first.๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

    I agree with you if you mean the first steam turbine and not the first steam ever.

    The first successful steam turbine-powered ship was the Turbinia, built by Charles Parsons. It appeared at the 1897 Spithead Review where it made the Patrol boats trying to catch it look very silly.๐Ÿ˜
