Action of 30 June 1798

Created by Jackyd101 (talk). Self-nominated at 18:04, 27 May 2015 (UTC).

  • Symbol voting keep.svg Article new and long enough, well-written & referenced. Hook under 200 characters and interesting enough. Hook fact sourced to (offline) book source. Sasata (talk) 04:20, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
I don't see what "but only two ever sailed again" adds to the hook, IMO the hook would be better without it because the fact that all three ships grounded is the unusual fact and the extra phrase just distracts attention from it. In fact I'll add an alt:
Thanks for the review. To be honest I'm not sure about your alt; I think the fact that two of the grounded ships were recovered and repaired is the significant part of the hook rather than the grounding per se, but I'm not that bothered either way.--Jackyd101 (talk) 19:18, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
