There were still forests with large numbers of very old large trees needed to make the tall masts of ships in New England, whereas the forests of Europe had already been largely logged out of such trees making it harder and more expensive to get them.

Did England beat the Spanish armada by luck or skill?

The Spanish Armada set sail with 150 great ships but they returned to Spain with 67. The beating of the Armada was a combination of both luck and skill but England's main weapon was their new and improved weapons. The Spanish had more planning but as the English had just designed a new set of ships, which were just as big as those in the Armada, but as they were lower and lighter due to the cheaper and less heavy cannons the ships could be manoeuvred better. This was a huge advantage. Before many of the ships were lost by Scotland (due to bad weather conditions), the English set fire to some of their ships and drove them into the Spanish.

Why was the Gulf Stream important to Western Europe?

The Gulf Stream is a current of warm water that brings warmth and moisture to Western Europe. Palm trees can grow along the coast of Ireland and the south-west coast of England. This point is far to the north of the most northern point in the United States where palm trees grow. It keeps Europe warmer in the winter than it would be other wise. The 12 kilometer an hour (8 miles an hour) current makes it possible for ships to travel faster from the United States to Europe than would otherwise be possible. The need for ships to sail north of the gulf stream caused problems. Icebergs filled those waters as the story of the Titanic illustrates.
