} |} HMS ''Quail'' was a Royal Navy ''Cuckoo''-class schooner of four 12-pounder carronades and a crew of 20. Custance & Stone built her at Great Yarmouth and launched her in 1806.〔Winfield (2008), p.361.〕 Her decade-long career appears to have been relatively uneventful. She was sold in 1816. ==Service== She was commissioned in June 1806 under Lieutenant Patrick Lowe for the Channel. 〔 In 1807 she was under Lieutenant Isaac Charles Smith Collett for the North Sea.〔In February 1807 Collett had been captain of ''Quail's'' sister ship, ''Woodcock'' when she had wrecked.〕 On 6 July ''Quail'' captured the ''Drie Gebroders''. She also was at the surrender of the Danish Fleet after the Battle of Copenhagen on 7 September. ''Quail'' also shared, with many other ships in the British fleet at Copenhagen, in the prize money for several captures in August: ''Hans and Jacob'' (17 August), ''Die Twee Gebroders'' (21 August), and ''Aurora'', ''Paulina'', and ''Ceres'' (30 and 31 August). In 1809 Lieutenant John Osborn took command. On 19 May 1809 he captured the ''Jonge Jacob'', P. Hansen, master. On 25 July ''Quail'' was in company ''Strenuous'' and the hired armed cutter ''Albion'' when ''Albion'' captured the ''Maria Catherina''. Osborn sailed ''Quail'' for the Mediterranean on 11 September 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 Quail (1806)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
