He not a She.

He's a russian ship, so would be a he not a she. Russian thing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.243.189.133 (talk) 09:16, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

This isn't a Russian-language site. The English-language convention used for ships is "she", regardless of country or origin. It's actually prefer the grammatically-correct it, as it would avoid national preference arguments, but I'm not going to get my way on that either. - BillCJ (talk) 09:47, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
