"For the first and only time in history, wind-powered warships held their own against steam-powered ones" What were the two navies involved in this action?
 
The Battle Sinope, both sides had steam propelled war ships so the answer does not qualify. Neither of those two navies fit the answer.

I thought maybe you had the answer but accidently deleted before posting. Stuff happens :) We can edit posts but why can't we just delete them? This already can be done by the moderators so it is in the program in one form. I wonder why not allow us to delete our own posts??
