After the frigate HMS ''Niobe'' captured her in March 1806, the Royal Navy took her into Plymouth, but apparently laid her up in ordinary. She then disappears from the records until her sale in 1814. ==French career== From June 1803 ''lieutenant de vaisseau'' Jean-Philippe-Paul Jourdain remained at Lorient to supervise the construction of ''Néarque''.〔''Revue maritime et coloniale'', Vol. 121, p.237.〕 He would remain her commander until the British captured her. On 27 April 1805, Jourdain and ''Néarque'' captured the British 16-gun brig ''Heros'' after an engagement that lasted half an hour and in which Jourdain sustained two wounds.〔''Revue de l'Orient'', (1853) Volume 2; Volumes 13-14, p.p.357-8. (Delavigne)〕 Between early September 1805 and end-December, ''Néarque'' carried dispatches from Lorient to Martinique and back, then troops from Belle Île to Lorient, patrolled the southern coast of Brittany, and escorted a convoy from Lorient to Bénodet, returning to Lorient.〔''Fonds Marine, 1805-1826'', p.341.〕 Then in February 1806 she sailed from Groix to Concarneau.〔''Fonds Marine, 1805-1826'', p.356.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「French brig Néarque (1804)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
