There is a size limit on wooden ships due to leaking between the

sink pretty quickly even in a calm sea.

Hogging and breaching are the main problems with large ships.
There have also been found ships built with cord that used the swelling of
the wood in a flexible design to minimize leaks.

Most amusing (assuming flat seas ) is that the "solution" to hogging and
breaching can be found in the middle of the USA, right where the fundie
mindset is greatest.
I've yet to see a fundie use it.

Just ask Sam Clemmons.
