''Pomone'' subsequently had a relatively brief but active career in the British Navy off the Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts of France before suffering sufficient damage from hitting a rock to warrant being taken out of service and then broken up in 1803. == French service == ''Pomone'' was built to a one-off design by Baron Charles-Etienne Bombelle.〔Winfield and Roberts (2015), p.103.〕 After her capture, her design inspired that of the Royal Navy's ''Endymion''-class frigates. Between 17 February and 28 August 1793, ''Pomone'' was stationed at Rochefort under the command of ''captain de vaisseau'' Dumoutier. She cruised along the coasts of the Vendée and then arrived at Brest.〔''Fonds Marine'', p.44.〕 Dumoutier continued in command in late September.〔(librairie-marine.com )〕 From 26 February 1794 ''Pomone'' was at Cherbourg under the command of ''lieutenant de vaisseau'' Étienne Pévrieu. He sailed her from Cancale.〔''Fonds Marine'', p.71.〕 The British captured her, along with ''Babet'' and ''Engageante'', off the Île de Batz during the Action of 23 April 1794. 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「French frigate Pomone (1787)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
