A list of puns related to "Royal Yacht"
It is a ship that will be biult primarily for promoting UK shipbuilding and for diplomatic functions, but is it possible that she could fulfill another role as well if called upon?
The last Royal yacht, HMY Britannia, was designed to be used as a hospital ship if the need ever arose, though it never did. This new ship will be even larger, at something abouts 7500 tons, and with the cost/equipment going into her as it is, it seems like some warlike role for this ship. Maybe just like her predesecor that she could be used as a hospital ship if needed.
One can dream about her as a modern auxillery cruiser with with Sea Ceptor, Phalanx, and anything else that can be easily bolted on. . . But that seems quite unlikely.
