Ship length errors

The ship's "lengthened" number is shorter than the original stated length, and the initial number looks wrong. First mention: "The ship was 184 feet long, 31 feet wide, and 11 feet in depth..." Later note: "In 1911, America was lengthened to 183 feet..."

From https://www.nps.gov/isro/learn/historyculture/ss-america.htm: "Length: 164.6 feet; lengthened to 182.6 feet (1910-11)" 24.21.52.169 (talk) 01:29, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
