https://books.google.co.uk/books/about/Roles_of_the_Sea_in_Medieval_England.html?id=GT2zJjkn90QC&redir_esc=y - Using the Battle of Margate section which contains a generous amount of free access pages on the subject, this article could easily become incredibly in depth especially in the aftermath of selling the booty of captured ships, wine and iron (for £10000s which in medieval 1300s England is quite frankly more than multiple king's ransoms) and an aftermath section divided into separate sections going into selling ships, prisoners (Including the admiral Jean de Buqc), and cargo (including tens of thousands of tuns of wine which could literally fill 15-16 Olympic sized swimming pools and halved the price of wine in London for a year) - economy, relations, Cadzand, looting of Flanders, naval supremacy, supply and demand, and much more... -Basically a to do list for editing the main article - I won't be able to do it all myself and help would be greatly appreciated and is greatly needed TheBestEditorInEngland (talk) 01:48, 3 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
