Was it really the biggest sea battle?
I always thought it was the Greeks against the Persians in the Battle of Salamis. I say
this because a few months ago I seen a History channel doc on ancient Greece.

I think there were about 400 Greek tri-remes against 1,500 Persian battle ships. That
must have been one crazy sea battle. It was around 400 BC or something.

Wait a minute I will look this up.

OK, you stand correct, it was the largest in terms of ship tonnage. Heavy ships they were...
