In re-reading Missee Lee, AR's description of the loss of the Wild Cat makes me wonder whether he was speculating theoretically on how a ship would burn to the water line? Or if he had actually observed the burning of a ship, and he was recreating it for ML?

Do any of you who are more well-read Ransome fans happen to know?
