What significant difference between the British and u.s navies explains the defeat of the British navy in the war of 1812?
The British navy was not defeated during the war of 1812. To begin with, a few small, unprepared vessels were attacked and sunk by vessels of superior individual power belonging to the US navy. The US navy had only 16 ships at the start of the war, the British navy had 175 ships of the line and 600 ships of all kinds during the Napoleonic Wars.The British were often successful in conflicts between individual ships. On 1 June 1813, HMS Shannon beat the Chesapeake off Boston in a battle fought at close range in which a lack of preparedness on the part of the American commander was a key factor. On 14 August 1813, the USS Argus was captured off Wales by the similarly gunned Pelican after the British gunners proved superior. The next year, the British frigate Le Rhin captured the largest privateer to sail from Charleston, the Decatur , which had boarded and seized the British sloop Dominica in August 1813.

How come Napoleon lost to the British navy at sea?
1. He was a soldier, not a sailor, and understood little of the sea - tides, winds, the impossibility of precise timing. 2. The sea was unimportant to him except as a path to England - all his other enemies could be attacked directly from France. 3. Many of the best sea officers had been lost in the Revolution, either by execution or by emigration. 4. The French navy, smaller than the British from the start, was blockaded in its ports for most of the time, and lacked the opportunity to train and exercise crews. 5. Seeing the navy blockaded, Napoleon took most of the experienced gunners to man his land artillery. As a result, British gunnery was twice as fast as French. 6. The final total defeat of the French fleet at Trafalgar came comparatively early in Napoleon's career - only a year after he became Emperor.
