Right. I want a name for this one. And to be kind I shall give the clue of Lord Nelson.

Happy hunting.

H.M.S Victory?

That would be too easy. Remember the round ironclad I found for the last guess the battleship? This quiz was never that simple.

Right. I shall give another clue. It's a napoleonic line-of-battle ship that survived long enough for someone to take that photo.

Well she looks a bit like HMS Temeraire, but i'm not sure how long that ship survived.

TSC.

Tis not her either. Though you got the HMS bit right.

I'll try the old guess the aircraft trick...

HMS Lob?

I'll leave now... ::)

HMS Foudroyant. Nelson's flagship during the recapture of Naples in 1799.

Absolutely correct.

When was the photo taken?

by **Woodlouse2002** » Sun May 22, 2005 5:31 pm

Sometime between when photographs were invented and 1897 when she was wrecked off Blackpool. 1880's or 90's I should imagine.

Same era. The difference however lies in that the ship in Master and Commander was a 38 gun frigate, and that is a 74 gun line of battle ship.

Guess the battleship: Returns!
