HMS Bombay (1805)
HCS ''Bombay'', later HMS ''Bombay'' and HMS ''Ceylon'', was a teak-built fifth rate, 38-gun wooden warship built in the Bombay Dockyard for the Honourable East India Company (HEIC) and launched in 1793. The Royal Navy purchased her in 1805 and renamed her HMS ''Bombay''. She served with the Royal Navy under that name until 1 July 1808, when she became HMS ''Ceylon''. She was sold at Malta in 1857.
==East India Company service==
In July 1803 the HEIC appointed John Hayes captain. Taking his family aboard, he sailed her from Bombay to Calcutta, where they arrived on 11 August, and where his family established themselves.〔Lee (1812), p.218-20.〕 On the resumption of war with France the HEIC appointed Hayes commodore of a small squadron consisting of ''Bombay'', ''Mornington'' (22 guns), ''Teignmouth'' (16), and the armed vessel ''Castlereagh'' (16), and charged him with protecting the trade routes in the Bay of Bengal and adjacent waters.
At some point, Hayes and ''Bombay'' sailed to Muckie, Sumatra, and captured the fort there.〔 It had belonged to the HEIC, but had been lost due to the "treachery of the Malays". After three days of bombardment by ''Bombay'' and ''Castlereagh'', he landed at the head of a party of seamen and took the fort and adjacent batteries, which the British dismantled. They also took off 67 guns and a quantity of stores.〔
