One Piece: Sanji Calc East Blue Upgrade

Why is the ship assumed to be made entirely from steel, I understand the shooting mechanism inside for the canon being that but wouldn't the rest make more sense being wood or something?
Do I not get something?
 
I'll post a comment on this tomorrow, though I share Tllmbrg's confusion on that point.

Assuming the entire thing is constructed from steel seems unwarranted.

346 Sabah Gassiler 6/53

A naval weapon built into the bow of the Baratier. Three cannons are installed in its mouth, but it lacks mobility as its propulsion is human-powered (leg paddles).

A naval weapon to protect the safety of guests during meals.

I mean it's literally meant to be a small defensive tank ship

The wood broke but the ship didn't, plus most of it is shiny, implying there's some sort of steel

I agree with the op personally
 
If it was painted wood, then I don't see the issue with its appearance. None of the databook statements indicate it being metal. The best evidence there is just that it didn't break when crashing into the other ship.
 
My other issue with the calc is using the square-cube law to find the ship's mass by comparing it to a real mackeral.

This is what the proportions of a mackeral looks like:

Mackerel-db561ae.jpg


And this is what the porportions of the ship looks like:

So something like this "Fish head is 20%-25% (22.5%) of the mass." doesn't work when we can see that the "head" portion of the ship is clearly not 22.5% of the entire ship, and its proprotions do not line up with IRL mackeral at all.

Since I'm outvoted on this I'll drop the wood point, but the proportions issue is still a problem.

I never said the head proportion was 22.5 percent of the entire ship.

I said that'd be the size of a theoretical mackeral with a head size that big, and I was using the 22.5% to count for the entire ship, not just for the head of it.

The ship is called the Mackeral head, so I calced the mass of a Mackeral head.

Okay. That was a bit unclear in the original calc, but I see it now.
