"The world can be saved by steam," she repeated, dubiously.

"Alright. This is the boiler unit we'll be using on the ship. You'll see it has a wood and coal burning stove. You'll also see the ship is wood. This is why safety is crucial. Steam comes up this shaft and turns this turbine here, and THAT generate all our power. Once it is hooked up, it will run all four of our propellers. The second boiler, when I build it, will run air oars to help us turn, as well as to check our speed. a boiler at mast, aft, and sides will keep the cloth inflated, and keep us afloat. They will have to be monitored carefully. With me so far?"

"Right," he nodded, "good. Now whats hard in the hull itself, is bending the wood so that it remains strong, this is done with salt water steam. Do you know how to work with that?"

She watches and learns, a bit clumsy at first.

And he helps her through it. When some one is paying attention and cares to learn, he's actually patient and kind.

She's not a genius, but she does tend to focus when learning. If it means doing her job, she'll learn anything.
