French ship Belle Poule (1765) : ウィキペディア英語版 | French frigate Belle Poule (1765)
''Belle Poule'' was a French frigate of the ''Dédaigneuse'' class, which Léon-Michel Guignace built. She is most famous for her duel with the British frigate ''Arethusa'' on 17 June 1778, which began the French involvement in the American War of Independence. ==1768 – 1778== ''Belle Poule'' was built in Bordeaux between March 1765 and early 1767. She served in two campaigns in the West Indies, where due to her good sailing performance she was selected for the first French attempt at covering her hull with copper to resist marine growths. From 1772 to 1776, she was sent on hydrographic missions, during which the young La Pérouse came to the attention of his superiors. On 12 December 1776, she left India to return to Brest. At the time, France was not yet engaged in the American War of Independence, but there had been numerous incidents involving French and British ships. Indeed, on 27 April 1777, ''Belle Poule'' was chased by a British ship of the line, which she easily evaded to reach Brest.
