Which outcome occurred when 18th-century warships exceeded design displacement?

💡 Explanation

Reduced maneuverability occurred because exceeding design displacement increased the vessel's underwater volume causing increased drag and a deeper draft; therefore, ships handled sluggishly and risked grounding, rather than capsizing was avoided without careful loading.
