The setting is vaguely late 1800s in its stylings, so I figure there’s plenty of iron-side vessels. I am mostly just taking my cues from Dishonored, I admit.
I find it hard not to imagine exactly this: img03.deviantart.net although maybe with more weird mega-harpoons and hooks and the other various tools of an iron bloodsucker.
I also picture ironclads (https://weaponsandwarfare.files.wordpress.com/2016/04/8649709571_a88a04298c_b.jpg) combined with the awe-inspiring scale of transatlantic ships in early 20th century advertising, e.g. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/19/ba/84/19ba8406c9600dda959341b734b9f29e–art-deco-posters-poster-art.jpg
