[edit] How many guns?

Most online sources say that the St. Lawrence had 112 guns (one said 120), but the list of guns in the article adds up to only 104. In The Command of the Ocean, N.A.M. Roger mentions the St. Lawrence without naming it, writing that "At the end of the war Commodore Sir James Yeo had a three-decker, 102-gun flagship" (p.569). I wonder if it's a difference between how many guns the St. Lawrence was designed to hold, and how many she was actually equipped with. Does anyone have any sources that can clear this up?
