The belief that the progression of naval engineering will, over time, degrade the aesthetic appeal and qualities of the design of a ship.
The term references the Surveyor of the Royal Navy, Robert Seppings, who put forward radical changes in sailing ship design across the fleet improving their seaworthiness and general durability.
