The ''Heureux'' was a ''Centaure'' class 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy. She cruised in the Mediterranean in 1794 and 1795. Under Captain Jean-Pierre Etienne, she took part in the Expedition to Egypt, and in the Battle of the Nile. The first ship to spot the British fleet on 1 August, ''Heureux'' fought the next day and was forced to strike her colours. Too badly damaged for repairs, she was burnt. ==References== *Demerliac, Cmdt. Alain, ''Nomenclature des navires français de 1774 a 1792''.
