Warships and submarines. Nuff said!

Submarines are boats, not ships.

I put down Warships, but it wasn't specific enough. I like destroyers. Gearing class destroyers.

Like the one I served on.

Agreed.

I like Battleships, particularly those between the pre-dreadnought era and WWI-era designs. Mind you, that's "like" in the same way one would like dinosaurs :p

In other words between this and the one mrbeast posted

Submarine is a boat but I still love them anyway, nothing like sliding underwater for a bit of peace and quiet when there's a storm going on above.
