[edit] Factual accuracy disputed

Disputed: Primarily because this article was entered by an anon on April Fools Day. The discussion about the battle of Nissa jives with Wilhelm von Tegetthoff, but I don't know if that was in fact the last time a ship was rammed.-Rholton 13:56, Apr 1, 2005 (UTC)

There appears to be ample evidence on the internet to support at least the existance of the "ram bow". For example: http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/ship/design.htm

Which one would think would be sufficient enough to remove any factual doubt.

I can assure everyone that ram bows are real — I have removed the disputed tag and will be updating the article shortly. -Lommer | ^talk 22:21, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I've rewritten the article from scratch. Together, Everyone Achieves More - that's what 'team' stands for! -Ashley Pomeroy 15:29, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)

There appears to be a linking error. A reference to "U-29", a submarine, leads to a page on U-29, a road in Utah. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 196.32.152.197 (talk) 16:02, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
