How did the ocean stay cool before steamships were invented?

There was less CO2 in the atmosphere, which increased its capacity to cool off the oceans.

We don't know that they did. It takes satellites to get a representative measure of ocean temperatures worldwide. There's some noisy data from ships dipping mercury thermometers into the oceans, but this was hardly a widespread practice.
