January 4, 200817 yr Author Wasn't Ironsides a ship that was "canonball" proof? But anyways, congrats Nick, really impressive accomplishment!! I believe the proper term was Ironclads. The Monitor and the Merrimac during the Civil War.

January 4, 200817 yr Wasn't Ironsides a ship that was "canonball" proof? But anyways, congrats Nick, really impressive accomplishment!! lol, you're thinking of the ship "Old Ironsides" haha but it's still a pretty sweet last name.
January 4, 200817 yr "Old Ironsides" was actually a wooden boat and if I remember correctly. It had "green wood" on the sides which allowed the boards to bow when the cannon balls hit it. Any history buffs in here to confirm this one?
