Well the Daily Mail doesn’t know its own COUNTRY. Article says the Prince of Wales broke down off the “Isle of White”!!!!!???? (no such place). There IS an Isle of Wight a county and island in the UK on the course taken to Norway.

FWIW- they have no spell checkers.

And re-reading the article it starts saying HMS Queen Elizabeth had a “coupling” problem. Also? It isn’t clear at all.

If it was a coupling problem then one of the huge drive shafts may have become.... UN-coupled (a really big deal, depending on how or what the coupling section is designed).

Who knows the article is in reality fairly unclear, about which was which with the trouble or... maybe both had the same problem.

Not a county - it’s part of the county of Hampshire. You can’t leave Portsmouth by sea without passing the IoW.
