Coaling (ships)
text:
Coaling is the process of loading coal onto coal-fuelled ships, particularly warships. The lengthy refueling or coaling required by coal-fuelled steam ships brought considerable additional risk to the ship and hardship to the crew. Coal could not be pumped and, once loaded, it had to be continuously moved to ensure bunkers nearest the boilers were always full should full power be suddenly needed.
