Talk:Prize money
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
yes, I know this looks like a dictionary entry. Still, the topic of prize money in the Royal Navy (AKA Nelson's Navy) has more than enough meat to fill out an article.
- When was prize money instituted?
- What were the portions.
- When (if ever) did the portions change?
- When did the practice of prize money come to an end?
- Under what conditions was prize money awarded?
- largest awards of prize money
- cases in which prize money could have been awarded but was not.
- what other contries besides England used prize money to reward and motivate their navies?

If 2/8 goes to the capitains and 1/8 to the crew, what hapens to the other 5/8 of the prize money? Shouldn't then not be 2/3 and 1/3?
- The above is now two and a half years old, yet the article still does not contain even such a basic fact as when prize money was abandoned. Someone who knows, please help! Loganberry (Talk) 11:39, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
