The Posting

This note covers that Amphion posting only. A rate, a launch year, and a later career stay on RESEARCH_QUEUE.

The same Hardy sentence already names HMS Vanguard — Nelson’s Nile Flagship, HMS Foudroyant — 80-gun Third Rate, HMS St George — 98-gun Second Rate, and HMS Victory — Overview. Those postings stay there. Hardy Flag-Captain Victory — 31 July 1803 already used the Victory date. Do not invent a rate from this page.²
