Lord Yarmouth had little confidence in the prince Regent as a sailor
He made a bet with Admiral Sir Edmund Nagle that HRH that his HRH
would not spend a single night at sea. Nagle accepted the bet and increased it to 100 Guineas for every night thus spent sa pamamagitan ng the prince. Nagle told the prince of the bet,
and the latter-against his inclinations-contrived to stay onboard four nights.
Yarmouth quite justifiably complained that telling the prince was unfair, but he paid the 420 Pounds
....
The only person, then one of the intimates of the Prince of Wales, who could not exactly assimilate himself to the smooth and silky ways of the courtier was...Sir Edmund Nagle, Whilst ( other courtiers) would accost you with all the suavity and urbanity of the most finished gentleman, Sir Edmund (contrarily) would meet you with his usual:
"God Damn you !" and "What do you want now?"
