During the American Civil War, the North did, indeed, have a formal navy. Not only did the North have a substantial number of war-ships and trained sailors and officers; it could also boast of having a highly developed merchant fleet. By contrast, the South had no such possession of war-ships or merchant vessels, let alone a substantial force of experienced seamen.
