In reality these two ships followed his design for the ''Centaure'' Class, but were completed with a length greater by 5¼ feet,and had also slightly less breadth and depth in hold. * ''Séduisant'' :Builder: Toulon :Ordered: 1 June 1782 :Begun: August 1782 :Launched: 5 July 1783 :Completed: 1783 :Fate: Wrecked, 16 December 1796 * ''Mercure'' :Builder: Toulon :Ordered: 1 June 1782 :Begun: August 1782 :Launched: 4 August 1783 :Completed: 1783 :Fate:Burnt by the British after the Battle of the Nile, 2 August 1798 ==References== *Demerliac, Cmdt.
