I can fix the problem. Just carry a long hose and suck cooling water from a greater depth.

How come it is only the British Royal Navy warships?

Only the part of ocean the vessels are on is too hot?

Britain's Royal Navy warships are breaking down because sea is too hot

Never mind that Britain has slipped to a fourth rate power and no longer can afford maintenance and modernization.

Are they cooling oil? Oil is still happy at +220 F. Seawater/turbine plant cooling exchanger may be undersized.

Rule Britannia is so passe', so yesterday.

Now the time has come to talk of shoes, and ships, and sealing wax...

I’m guessing these are gas turbines. I can’t believe they aren’t equiped with heat exchangers.
