POTCO Speed Limit?

I agree with Edward Edgemenace. The Light Sloop has always seemed faster because of the fact that it's a Light Ship ( Although not the significant factor, but that's just what I've always thought ). The Merchant Sloop is slightly slower than the Light Sloop, even though it may not seem so. And the War Sloop is the slowest of the Sloops ( You can't see that it's slower, but it definitely is the slowest ).

The highest speed any ship can go is with Ramming Speed - a War Sloop goes to 21 Knots, a War Frigate to 20, and a War Galleon to ( I believe ) 19.
