HMS Winchelsea (1764) : ウィキペディア英語版 | HMS Winchelsea (1764)
HMS ''Winchelsea'' was a 32-gun fifth-rate ''Niger''-class frigate of the Royal Navy, and was the sixth Royal Navy ship to bear this name (or its archaic form ''Winchelsey''). She was ordered during the Seven Years' War, but completed too late for that conflict. She cost £11,515-18-0d to build. ==Career==
HMS ''Winchelsea'' was brought into service in February 1769, under Captain Samuel Goodall, and sailed for service to the Mediterranean. In December 1769, she struck rocks off Cádiz, Spain and was severely damaged. She was refloated and taken in to Gibraltar for repairs. She saw service during the American War of Independence and thereafter until 1794, when she was paid off. She was fitted as a troop carrier in 1799-1800. Because ''Winchelsea'' served in the navy's Egyptian campaign (8 March to 2 September 1801), her officers and crew qualified for the clasp "Egypt" to the Naval General Service Medal that the Admiralty authorised in 1850 for all surviving claimants.
