    Which one is the 450 tonner? That one is definitely in the post ship/corvette size range, bigger than a Swan, smaller than a frigate.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
