Victory on the Atlantic Chase by Geoff Hunt In January 1805, after years
of blockade, the French and Spanish fleets broke out as part of a
Napoleonic plan to control the English Channel and invade England.
The strategy included a diversionary attack on the West Indies.
Nelsons fleet dashed across the Atlantic in pursuit. The French
then fled back to their home ports chased by Nelson and the scene was
set for the Battle of Trafalgar - 21st October 1805.
Victory Races Temeraire for the Enemy Line, Trafalgar
21st October 1805 by Geoff Hunt The most significant battle in naval history took place at walking
pace, in light winds, with the great ships of the British and
Franco-Spanish fleets rolling slowly in the Atlantic swell.
Agamemnon Opens Fire on the Ca Ira, 13th March 1795 by
Geoff Hunt "She is the finest ship I ever sailed in" said Horatio
Nelson. Agamemnon's speed took her ahead of the British fleet on 13th
March 1795 to engage single-handed the vastly larger, but crippled, Ca Ira
which was supported by two other French ships of the line.
Boreas in the West Indies March 1787 by Geoff Hunt
An early command, the 28-gun frigate Boreas and her commission in the
West Indies, came close to ruining Nelson's career.
Vanguard in Heavy Weather off Toulon, 19th May 1798 by
Geoff Hunt vanguard, a 74-gun ship of the line, was to be Nelson's flagship at the
Battle of the Nile, his first great victory as an Admiral in command of a
major fleet.
HMS Artemis - 32 gun Frigate in the Great Southern Ocean
by Geoff Hunt A British frigate plunges through the waves, sails spread in fair
weather. She is typical of the frigates essential to the British Navy in
the late 18th Century, so many of which won battle honors against enormous
odds - as well as huge quantities of prize money.

Nore, 1793 by Geoff Hunt |
