HMS ''Hind'' was a 28-gun sixth-rate frigate of the Royal Navy. The ship was a revival of the ''Coventry'' class, designed in 1756 by Sir Thomas Slade as a development of his of 1748, "with such alterations as may tend to the better stowing of men and carrying for guns." The design was slightly modified for the ''Hind'' and its projected sistership ''Laurel'' (which was cancelled after the builder went bankrupt). After launch, ''Hind'' was completed at Deptford Dockyard from 1785 until 24 November 1787 but was not commissioned until May 1790, when she went into service under the command of Captain Alexander Cochrane until 1793. The captain's nephew, Thomas Cochrane saw his first sea service under his uncle's captaincy. captured the French privateer ''Espoir'', of ten guns, on 2 March 1793.〔Winfield (2008), p.137.〕 By agreement, ''Crescent'' shared the bounty bill with ''Hind''. In 1794 ''Hind'' was commanded by Captain Philip Durham, in 1795 Captain Philip Lee, and in 1796 Captain John Bazely. In June 1797 command passed to Captain Joseph Larcom, who remained with her until she paid off from service following the Peace of Amiens. She was refitted at Frindsbury in 1804-05, and recommissioned at Chatham in June 1805 under Captain Francis Fane for Mediterranean service. In April 1808 command passed to Captain Richard Vincent, then in 1809 Captain John Lumley and 1810 Captain Spelman Swaine. ==Fate== She was taken to pieces at Deptford in July 1811. 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「HMS Hind (1785)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
