The HMS Indefatigable under Captain Sir Edward Pellew during the Napoleonic Wars. That would be quite something. Reply #25. Mar 10 23, 12:38 PM |

HMS Bellerophon (the first of the four Royal Navy ships to bear the name). This was the ship known to its crew as "The Billy Ruffian" on which blockaded Napoleon's attempted escape to America after his defeat at Waterloo. Napoleon then boarded the Bellerophon to surrender and it was the Bellerophon that transported him to St. Helena. Reply #26. May 26 23, 9:25 AM |

Captain Cook's first voyage - on the mighty little ship "Endeavour". The one in which he "discovered" the east coast of Australia - but carefully avoiding the area in far north Queensland waters on which it struck a reef. He made it back to England safely that time. On his third and last voyage, this time on the "Resolution", and if with him, I might say, "Let's avoid going back to the Sandwich Islands, Capt'n. You could end up as the filling" Reply #27.
