continental navy | This was the name of the maritime force of the united states from 1776 until 1794 when the united states navy was founded. also known as navy of the thirteen united colonies, it had an inauspicious beginning and a generally undistinguished war of independence. commissions were awarded as political patronage with little consideration of seafaring or military experience. drunkenness and desertion were as common in the wardroom as on the lower deck. there was no time for purpose-building, so most of the ships were merchantmen with gunports hastily sawn into their hulls. american shipwrights had virtually no experience of warship design and made many mistakes. none was delivered on time, and those that were launched often lay at the docks waiting for ordnance, rigging, stores, and crews. when equipment did arrive, much of it was substandard. only two of the frigates survived the war; seven having been captured and inducted into the royal navy, while four more were scuttled to avoid a similar fate. the last one, uss alliance, was abandoned on a mudbank in the delaware river, where her rotting hulk remained until the 1920s. overall, continental privateers did better than the navy; about 2,000 letters of marque were issued and their holders wreaked havoc on british trade. however, two continental navy officers managed to seriously damage the royal navy’s feeling of invincibility. captains lambert wicks in 18-gun brig reprisal and john paul jones in 18-gun corvette ranger raided and took prizes off the english coast, and shortly afterward jones obtained command of bonhomme richard, a french east indiaman converted to 42-gun frigate. in her, jones circumnavigated the british isles, creating turmoil along the english, irish, and scottish coasts, and topping it off with a victorious single-ship action against hms serapis, a new, faster, purposebuilt 44-gun frigate. |

continental shelf | - The seabed from the shore to the edge of the continental slope, covered by relatively shallow seas (known as shelf seas) and gulfs.
- Portions of the continental land masses covered by sea water. extend varying distances outward from the exposed continental margins. usually, the continental shelf will be wider along a passive continental margin, and narrower along an active margin.
- A zone of relatively shallow water, usually less than 100 fathoms (200 meters/600 feet) deep, extending from the low water mark to the point where rapid deepening occurs.
- The area of relatively shallow water surrounding a land mass. the uk has a substantial one, including much of the north sea, the irish sea and the english channel. ok my french friends, la manche.
