Your challenge is to see that sails are still added to engine equipped ships until the 1910s to 1920s.

As I understand it the use of sails to add auxiliary propulsion to steamships became decreasingly commonplace as the year 1900 approached until they where not added to new ships at all.

I'm not sure if changing this would require a POD pertaining more to steam engine technology, or preference on part of ship designers.
