The recent posting of the illustrations of Les forceurs de blocus give us
a third alternative for the name of the vessel.
In Verne's original text we have "Le Delphin", in the illustration showing
a conversation on the deck between Playfair and Jenny, the lifebelt is
clearly marked "Dauphin" and in most English translations we have
"Dolphin". So it would seem that we have the choice between German, French
and English!
