HMS Leander (1882)
HMS ''Leander'' was a second class cruiser, name ship of the Royal Navy's first ''Leander''-class cruisers. During a revolution in Panama in 1900, ''Leander'' helped protect the lives and property of foreign residents.
==Design and construction==
The ''Leander'' was built by Napier in Glasgow, being laid down in 1880, launched in 1882 and completed in 1885. The ''Leander'' class were originally designated as steel dispatch vessels,〔(www.britainsnavy.co.uk HMS ''Leander'' )〕 but were reclassified as second class cruisers before they were completed. The design was an improved version of the ''Iris'' class, with an armoured deck and better armament.〔(www.worldnavalships.com ''Leander'' class )〕 The ''Leander'' had three masts and two funnels;〔 she was square-rigged on the fore-mast and gaff-rigged on the two masts behind the funnels.〔(Photos and a water colour of the ''Leander'' under sail in the Canadian Anglo-Boer War Museum )〕 She was armed with ten 6-inch BL guns, 16 machineguns and four above-water torpedo-tubes.〔〔〔 Four of the machine guns were later replaced by four 3 pdr QFs.〔〔
After her sister ship ''Phaetons trials, the ''Leander'' had her funnels raised 6 ft to improve the draught to the boilers. Once this was done, the ''Leander'' exceeded her designed speed.〔 She was the only one of her class to have forced draught.〔 The ''Leander'' was a good steamer, but a poor sea-boat with a heavy roll in some sea conditions.〔
