Ah, but if it had been the EdS, then Prinz Eugen (of course a different ship) could also have been a correct answer and at the normal halving of the prize pool per hint provided, would still have garnered a cool 62,500 pounds !! (How come I don't have that funny 'L' symbol on my keyboard?) I'd have even of settled for an extra halving per correct answer. [;)]ORIGINAL: warspite1

Oops if it's Eugenio di Savoia than it's already been guessed (sort of) - see Prinz Eugen above.
Its not Eugenio di Savoia - but if it was then Prinz Eugen (a completely different ship) would not have counted!

Cheating now, Garibaldi?
Is the correct answer. After the armistice, Garibaldi was one of the cruisers used to patrol the Atlantic.
