HMS Salsette (1805)
HMS ''Salsette'' (or ''Salcette'') was a ''Perseverance''-class fifth-rate frigate of a nominal 36 guns, launched in 1805. The East India Company built her for the Royal Navy at the Company's dockyards in Bombay.〔 She was the Navy's first teak-built ship.〔
She served in the Indies, the Baltic, the Mediterranean and the Home Station, taking several prizes and seeing a limited amount of action. She did participate in a single-ship action in the Baltic that was notable for the other, much smaller, vessel's heroism. ''Salsette'' was laid up after the end of the Napoleonic Wars but then went on to serve in a number of support functions until the Admiralty had her broken up in 1874.
==Naming==
Built and launched as HMS ''Pitt'', she was renamed to ''Salsette'' on 19 February 1807. She is not to be confused with her sister ship ''Doris'', which was named ''Salsette'' prior to her acquisition by the Royal Navy, which renamed her ''Pitt''. This ''Pitt'' became ''Doris'' on 26 October 1807.〔Gardiner (2006), p.11.〕 For a while the Navy had two frigates with the same name.
''Salsette'' received her name from Salsette Island in Maharashtra state on India's west coast. The metropolis of Bombay and the city of Thane lie on this island.
