HDMS Langeland (1808) : ウィキペディア英語版 | HDMS Langeland (1808)
The brig HDMS ''Langeland'', launched in late 1808 and fitted out in 1809, was one of four brigs〔(Fra Krigens Tid ) lists these as ''Samsøe'' , Captain Johannes Krieger ; ''Alsen'', Senior Lieutenant M. Lütken ;''Kiel'', Senior Lieutenant Otto F. Rasch and ''Langeland'', Senior Lieutenant T. Lütken.〕 transferred to Norwegian ports from Denmark on 1 January 1810. From Norway she escorted Danish cargoes or harried enemy (British) merchant shipping. She took part in a successful cruise to the North Cape along with the brig ''Lougen'' in 1810 and was later taken into the fledgling Norwegian navy after the 1814 Treaty of Kiel. She was sold into merchant service in 1827. ==Danish service==
During the summer of 1809, three British gun brigs - the ''Snake''-class brig-sloop (18), brig (16) and gun-brig (14), operated in the far northern waters of Norway. They briefly occupied - after one failed attempt – the small town and sheltered harbour of Hammerfest near North Cape. Senior Lieutenant Thomas Joachim Lütken was captain of the ''Langeland'' from 1809 to 1814. In the spring of 1810 the two Danish-Norwegian brigs ''Lougen'', under the command of Captain J. N. Müller and ''Langeland'' sailed from Fredericksværn and reached Hammerfest on the 28 June where they joined with three gun-schooners - ''Nornen'', ''Valkyren'' and ''Axel Thorsen'', each of which was armed with a 24-pounder gun fore and aft. The Dano-Norwegians hoped to find the expected British force in the waters of North Cape, for which there were few and poor charts, and no pilotage instructions. However, American merchant ships warned ''Nightingale'' and ''Gallant'' (''Snake'' had already left), of the enemy presence and they disappeared – apparently to Greenland to escort a convoy of British whalers. With the British gone, the coastal trade with Russia blossomed and a final convoy of the year was escorted into Trondheim.,〔''Aftenpost'' 29 May 1922, as repeated (on website ). Translated from the Danish〕 including 11 merchant ships.〔Topsøe-Jensen, Vol. 2, pp.227-229.〕〔In 1811 protection of the north fell to the lesser armed ships. The Norwegian navy maintained a presence until 1816, with an emphasis on improving charts and pilot instructions for these waters.〕
