I imagine Monitors, which were excellent brown water craft, would be far more useful in your case. Just putting it out there.
Have you seen the size of some of those ships on the Great Lakes?? They can travel all the way to the ocean. True, I'd need to expand the canal that goes around Niagra Falls, but my nation might be willing to do that, as it will definitely be useful in the future.
Also, NO, NO AIR RACE. I absolutely REFUSE to have technology SPRINT a DECADE EARLY. The first lighter and heavier than air designs that were even mildly practical and that even the worst government would even THINK about purchasing are still a FULL DECADE AHEAD in real life, and TOOK PLACE because the REST of technology advanced, especially light petrol engines. PLEASE don't rush forwards, I think technology should approximately meet real-life deadlines (with the exception pretty much being whenever our World War[s] starts, as that will surely jump military tech forward during its course).
